To find the length of segment UW, we can use the Pythagorean Theorem in triangle URW:
UW^2 = UR^2 + RW^2
UW^2 = 12^2 + 15.9^2
UW^2 = 144 + 252.81
UW^2 = 396.81
UW = sqrt(396.81)
UW = 19.95
Therefore, the length of segment UW is 19.95.
None of the multiple choice options provided are correct.
Triangle Diagram
In triangle upper R upper S upper T, U is the midpoint of modifying above upper R upper S with bar, V is the midpoint of modifying above upper S upper T with bar, and W is the midpoint of Segment TR.
triangle
Angle R is the bottom left, angle T is the bottom right, and angle S is the top. Inside is another equilateral triangle facing down. Angle U is on the left, angle V is on the right, and angle W is the bottom. This forms four triangles within the larger triangle. Triangle URW has side lengths 12 and 15.9. Triangle VWT has side lengths 3y and 11. Triangle SUV has side lengths blank and 2x.
