\n" ); document.write( "51 yd103 yd72 yd
\n" ); document.write( "An image contains a picture of a house, two black rays, three red labeled line segments, one blue dashed line and four labeled points.
\n" ); document.write( "The house is located at the top right of the image.
\n" ); document.write( "The two black rays, one pointing up and one pointing right, intersect in the lower left of the image. The ray pointing right is labeled East and the ray pointing up is labeled North.
\n" ); document.write( "Point A is located at the intersection of North and East. Point B is some distance above point A and lands on North. Point C is to the right of point B. Point D is above point C and directly in front of the house.
\n" ); document.write( "A dashed blue line segment connects point A to point D.
\n" ); document.write( "The red line segment that connects point A to point B is labeled 103 yd. The red line segment that connects point B to point C is labeled 72 yd. The red line segment that connects point C to point D is labeled 51 yd. PLEASE JUST GIVE ME THE ANSWER NOT THE FORMULA I NEED IT AS SOON AS POSSIBLE!!!
