What is the value of h in the figure below? In this diagram,
BAD - CBD

Answer:
Option D
Step-by-step explanation:
By using geometric mean theorem in the given right triangle ABC,
[tex]\frac{AD}{BD}= \frac{BD}{DC}[/tex]
BD² = AD × DC
h² = (AC - CD) × DC
h² = (25 - 16) × 16
h² = 9 × 16
h = [tex]\sqrt{144}[/tex]
h = 12
Therefore, measure of side h = 12 units.
Option D will be the correct option.
