Answer:
1.
Step-by-step explanation:
We can see that CD is angle bisector, So we will use angle bisector theorem which states that the angle bisector of an angle of a triangle divides the opposite side in two segments that are proportional to the other two sides of the triangle.
We can set up an equation as:
Upon substituting our given values we will get,
Cross multiplying our equation we will get,
Therefore, the length of AD is units and 1st option is the correct choice.
She made her mistake at the first step. To simplify a radical, you would find two numbers that multiply by each other to get your original number (under the radical) and have one of the number be a perfect square.
Her reasoning is wrong because 10*10 is not
. Had she been correct, her answer should have been able to be squared to equal
In other words, she should have done
(We used 25 because 25 is a perfect square, 5*5=25).
