Answer:
Part a) [tex]93,826.8[/tex]
Part b) [tex]BC=3.7\ units[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Part a) we know that
[tex]40\%=40/100=0.40[/tex]
To find out the 40% of 234,567, multiply the number 234,567 by 0.40
so
[tex](0.40)(234,567)=93,826.8[/tex]
Part b) we know that
BA is perpendicular bisector of DC
That means
,[tex]\angle BED=\angle BEC=90^o[/tex]
[tex]ED=EC[/tex]
so
The triangles BED and BEC are congruent by SAS Congruence Theorem
BED≅ BEC
Remember that
If two figures are congruent, then its corresponding sides and its corresponding angles are congruent
therefore
BD ≅ BC
we have that
[tex]BD=3.7\ units[/tex]
so
[tex]BC=3.7\ units[/tex]
