Answer to Problem 39WE

The length of OE=h=12

Explanation of Solution

Given Information:

  O is the center of square ABCD and VO¯ is perpendicular to the plane of the square.

Given figure,

  McDougal Littell Jurgensen Geometry: Student Edition Geometry, Chapter 8.2, Problem 39WE , additional homework tip  1

Calculation:

Consider the figure as shown below:

  McDougal Littell Jurgensen Geometry: Student Edition Geometry, Chapter 8.2, Problem 39WE , additional homework tip  2

Consider the triangle VOZ .

Therefore, by Pythagorean Theorem: In a right triangle, the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the legs.

So here,

  VO2+OZ2=VZ2202+152=VZ2625=VZ2VZ=25

Suppose, OE=h,EZ=x and VE=25x .

Consider triangles VOE and OEZ ,

  OZ2=OE2+EZ2225=h2+x2..........(1)

Similarly,

  VO2=OE2+VE2175=h2+(25x)2.......(2)

Solve the above equations to get,

  x=9 and h=12

Hence, the length of OE=h=12
