Point C is on line segment start overline, B, D, end overline
BD
. Given C, D, equals, 11CD=11 and B, D, equals, 15, commaBD=15, determine the length start overline, B, C, end overline, .
BC
.
To find the length of BC, we first need to find the length of BD using the given information that BD = 15.
Now, since CD = 11, we can calculate the length of BC using the formula for the sum of the lengths of two segments on a line:
BD = BC + CD
15 = BC + 11
Subtracting 11 from both sides gives us:
4 = BC
Therefore, the length of BC is 4.
