If DBC = 90° what is the relationship between AD and CD?​

_____________________________________

Answer

AD=CD

_____________________________________

The sum of supplementary angles is 180º

If ∠ DBC = 90°

∠ DBC = 90° so then ∠ DBA = 90º

DB is the same for the two triangles

and AB = BC

By the side angle side congruence theorem, we can conclude AD=CD

If DBC = 90° what is the relationship between AD and CD?-example-2
