Kite A B C D is shown. Lines are drawn from point A to point C and from point B to point D and intersect.
Figure ABCD is a kite. The area of ABCD is 48 square units. The length of line segment BD is 8 units.

What is the length of AC?

5 units
6 units
10 units
12 units

Respuesta :

The length of AC is 12 units . Option D

How to determine the length

The formula for area of a kite is given thus;

Area = [tex]\frac{p * q}{2}[/tex]

Where p and q are the lengths

Area of kite = 48 square units

BD, q = 8 units

AC , p = unknown

Substitute the values

[tex]48 = \frac{AC * 8}{2}[/tex]

Cross multiply

[tex]AC * 8 = 48 * 2[/tex]

[tex]8AC = 96[/tex]

[tex]AC = \frac{96}{8}[/tex]

[tex]AC = 12[/tex] units

Thus, the length of AC is 12 units . Option D
