Question

HELP! last one of the day!

Answer 1

The bisector of the angle at A (call it AQ) divides the segment BC into segments BQ:QC having the ratio AB:AC. Use this fact to find x.

.. 9:15 = (2x -1):3x
.. 15(2x -1) = 9*3x . . . . . the product of the means equals the product of extremes
.. 30x -15 = 27x
.. 3x = 15
.. x = 5

___
According to the value of x, the bisector AQ divides the triangle into two isosceles triangles: ABQ, ACQ.
