Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First thing to do is draw the triangle with the line across it. Having the line creates another right angle triangle which enables us first to calculate AB

AB^2 + BD^2 = AD^2

AB^2 + 9^2 = 18 ^2

AB^2 = 243

By Pythagoras again you can now calculate the length of AC

AC^2 = AB^2 + BC^2

AC^2 = 243 + (9 + 4)^2

AC^2 = 243 + 169

AC = sqrt(412)

AC = 20.28 (2dp)

from above we can know AB=sqrt(18*18-9*9)=9sqrt(3) which sqrt(x)=x^(1/2)

then AC=sqrt(BC*BC+AB*AB)=sqrt(13*13+9*9*3)=sqrt(412) all by using the Pythagorean Theorem.
