Answer :

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

sqrt(45)


Discussion:

See the attached file. The length AB is the hypotenuse of  the right triangle with sides 3 and 6. Hence


AB = sqrt ( 3^2 + 6^2)

     = sqrt ( 9 + 36 )

    = sqrt (45)                <----- this is the answer they wanted!

    = sqrt (9 *5)

    = sqrt(9) * sqrt(5)

    = 3 * sqrt(5)


Thank you,

MrB

Answer:

B. /AB/  =  [tex]\sqrt{45}[/tex] units

Step-by-step explanation:

A quadrilateral is the class of four sided figures. Examples include: squares, rectangles, rhombus, kite, parallelogram, trapezium etc.

From the graph, the quadrilateral is in the form of a trapezium.

the length of the side AB can be determined by:

Draw a perpendicular from B to meet AD at E to form triangle ABE,

From triangle ABE, AE = 3 units and BE = 6 units. Applying the Pythagoras theorem to determine the length AB, we have;

  [tex]/AB/^{2}[/tex] = [tex]/BE/^{2}[/tex] + [tex]/AE/^{2}[/tex]

             = [tex]6^{2}[/tex] + [tex]3^{2}[/tex]

             =  36 + 9

[tex]/AB/^{2}[/tex]    = 45

Find the square root of both sides,

   /AB/  =  [tex]\sqrt{45}[/tex]

Thus,

/AB/  =  [tex]\sqrt{45}[/tex] units
