Answer:

D. 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the Angle Bisector theorem, the opposite sides of ∆ABC are divided into proportional segments alongside the two other sides of the triangle, as BD bisects the <ABC. This implies that:

AB/AD = CB/CD

Substitute

AB/8 = 6/4

Cross multiply

AB*4 = 6*8

AB*4 = 48

AB = 48/4

AB = 12

Answer:

x =5

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use ratios for the side lengths

9 x

--------- = -----------

9+18 x+10

Using cross products

9 (x+10) = x * (9+18)

Distribute

9x+90 = x*27

9x+90 = 27x

Subtract 9x from each side

9x-9x+90 = 27x-9x

90 = 18x

Divide each side by 18

90/18 = 18x/18

5 =x
