How to find the missing segment lengths?
Since triangle ACD is a right-angle triangle, we would use Pythagorean theorem to find the missing segment lengths of this triangles as follows:
c² = a² + b² ≡ AD² = CD² + AC²
Next, we would use cos trigonometric ratio to find side CD,
cos45 = adjacent/hypotenuse
cos 45 = CD/20
1/√2 = CD/20
CD = 1/√2 × 20
CD = (20√2)/2
CD = 10√2
For side AC, we have:
AD² = CD² + AC²
AC² = AD² - CD²
AC² = 20² - (10√2)²
AC² = 400 - 100(2)
AC = √200
AC = 10√2
From triangle ABC, we have:
cos45 = BC/10√2
BC = 10√2 × cos45
BC = 10√2 × 1/√2
BC = (10√2)/√2
BC = 10
For side AB, we have:
AB² = (10√2)² - 10²
AB² = 200 - 100
AB² = 100
AB = 10.
