Question

In the figure above, AB=4.8 and AC=7.2. What is the length of
segment BC?

Answer 1

Answer:

2.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Length AC is the length of the whole line meaning that if you subtract the length of AB, the remaining will equal to the length of BC:

7.2 - 4.8 = 2.4

Answer 2

The length of the segment $BC$ as per given dimensions is equal to

$2.4$ units.

What is length?

" Length is defined as one of the dimensions to represent the distance between two endpoints."

According to the question,

Given line segment,

Length of line segment $AC = 7.2$ units

Length of line segment $AB = 4.8$ units

As shown in figure $A - B - C$,

Therefore,

$BC = AC - AB \\\\\implies BC = 7.2-4.8\\\\\implies BC = 2.4 \ units$

Hence, the length of the segment $BC$ as per given dimensions is equal to $2.4$ units.
