Answer:

Probability =
(3)/(5)

Explanation:

Length of segment AD = 12 units

Since, AC = CD

Therefore, AC = CD =
(12)/(2) = 6 units

Since, AB = BC

Therefore, AB = BC =
(1)/(2)AC = 3 units

Number of total segments = 5

Number of segments having measure greater than three = 3

(AC = CD = 6 units and AD = 12 units)

Probability that the measure of a segment is greater than 3

=
$\frac{\text{Number of segments measuring greater than 3}}{\text{Total number of segments}}$

=
(3)/(5)
