Set up the following equation for this segment:
x is segment AB's length, and 3x is segment BC's length. 20 is segment AC's length.
Combine like terms:
Divide both sides by 4 to get x by itself:
x will equal 5.
Plug this value into the values for both segments:
Segment AB:
Segment AB is 5 inches long.
Segment BC:
Segment BC is 15 inches long.
