Then we can make CD perpendicular to AB and D perpendicular to feet.
The area of the triangle ABC =1/2ac * BC =1/2ab * CD.
Because AC = 300m, BC = 400m, AB = 500m.
So: CD = AC * BC/AB = 300 * 400/500 = 240m.
240 & lt250
Therefore, the AB section of the expressway is dangerous and needs to be temporarily blocked.
