stem
(A) 13.5 13.5
(B) 14 14
(C) 15.5 15.5
(D) 17 17
(E) 18.5 18.5
Answer
Correct choice: (D)
正确答案:(D)
Solution
(D) Triangle $ACD$ is an isosceles triangle with a $60^\circ$ angle, so it is also equilateral. Therefore, the length of $AC$ is $17$.
(D)三角形 $ACD$ 是一个含有 $60^\circ$ 角的等腰三角形,因此它也是等边三角形。所以,$AC$ 的长度是 $17$。
