Answer:
RQ = 18
Step-by-step explanation:
KR is an angle bisector and divides the opposite side into segments that are proportional to the other two sides, that is
=
, substitute values
=
( cross- multiply )
45(38 - x) = 50x ← distribute left side
1710 - 45x = 50x ( add 45x to both sides )
1710 = 95x ( divide both sides by 95 )
18 = x
That is RQ = 18
