Acme Products manufactures and markets a product called Grow Tall. Acme claims in its advertising that Grow Tall will make its users grow a minimum of six inches taller than their current height. The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) will likely find that the ad is

a. deceptive, and the FTC may issue a cease-and-desist order.

Explanation:

A product that can increase human height by 6 inches sounds highly improbable and so is deceptive to people.

The Federal Trade Commission in it's role as a protector of Consumers from.unfair and deceitful practices in Commerce can act against Acme to stop them from deceiving the consumer.

One of the ways that the FTC can do this is by issuing a Cease and Desist order to Acme and if they fail to do so, can then take them to Court.

bd = 9 cm

step-by-step explanation:

in a 30°-60°-90° triangle, the ratio of side lengths is 1 : √3 : 2. that is, the longest side (hypotenuse) is twice the length of the shortest side.

all of the triangles in your geometry are 30°-60°-90° triangles. ac is the hypotenuse of δacd, and the short side of δabc.

the short side ad of δacd will be half the length of ac, so 3 cm. the hypotenuse ab of δabc will be twice the length of ac, so 12 cm. segment bd is the difference of the lengths ab and ad, so is

bd = ab -ad

bd = 12 cm - 3 cm = 9 cm

comment on side length ratios

you can figure the ratios of side lengths in a 30°-60°-90° triangle by considering the trig ratios of the angles. or you can figure the length of the altitude of an equilateral triangle of side length 2 using the pythagorean theorem.
