8-1 eometric Mean - Collierville Schools

By the Geometric Mean (Altitude) Theorem the altitude drawn to the hypotenuse of a right triangle separates the hypotenuse into two segments. The length of this altitude is the geometric mean between the lengths of these two segments. So, the total height of the statue is about 159 + 68 or 227 inches, which is equivalent to 18 ft 11 in. ................
