Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
Δ CED and Δ CAB are similar thus the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is
=
, substitute values
=
=
( cross- multiply )
12x = 156 - x ( add x to both sides )
13x = 156 ( divide both sides by 13 )
x = 12
Thus
AC = 156 - x = 156 - 12 = 144 → D
Let r be a radius of a given circle and α be an angle, that corresponds to a sector.
The circle area is
and denote the sector area as 
.
Then
(the ratio between area is the same as the ratio between coresponding angles).
.
The circle area is
Then
