Sagot :

Answer:

5√6 mi

Explanation:

In the given figure, triangles DAC and EBC are similar.

The ratio of corresponding sides are:

[tex]\frac{DA}{EB}=\frac{AC}{BC}=\frac{DC}{EC}[/tex]

Substitute the given values:

[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{4\sqrt[]{138}}{\sqrt[]{138}}=\frac{BC+6\sqrt[]{3}}{BC} \\ 4=\frac{BC+6\sqrt[]{3}}{BC} \\ 4BC=BC+6\sqrt[]{3} \\ 4BC-BC=6\sqrt[]{3} \\ 3BC=6\sqrt[]{3} \\ BC=\frac{6\sqrt[]{3}}{3} \\ BC=2\sqrt[]{3} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Since we already have BC and EB, we use the Pythagoras theorem:

[tex]\begin{gathered} EC^2=EB^2+BC^2 \\ EC^2=(\sqrt[]{138})^2+(2\sqrt[]{3})^2 \\ EC^2=138+12 \\ EC^2=150 \\ EC^{}=\sqrt{150} \\ EC=5\sqrt{6}\text{ mi} \end{gathered}[/tex]

The exact length of EC is 5√6 mi.
