      Question

      In a triangle ABC, the internal bisector of ∠ A meets

      side BC at D. If AB = 6 cm, AC = 9 cm, and BC = 12 cm, what is the length of BD?Β 
      A 4.8 cm Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 5.4 cm Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 6 cm Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 7 cm Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Using the Angle Bisector Theorem, BD / DC = AB / AC 6 / 9 = 2 / 3. Since BD + DC = 12, BD = (2 / 5) Γ— 12 = 4.8\ Correct answer: a) 4.8 cm
