What is the value of x? Enter yourWhat is the value of x?

Answer 1

The required value of x is 3.5.

Explanation:

Now we have to,

→ find the required value of x.

Forming the equation,

→ AD/AC = BD/BC

Then the value of x will be,

→ AD/AC = BD/BC

→ x/5 = 4.2/6

→ x = (4.2/6) × 5

→ x = (4.2 × 5)/6

→ x = 21/6

→ [ x = 3.5 ]

Hence, the value of x is 3.5.

Answer 2

x = 3.5

Explanation:

The angle bisector CD divides the segments on one side into the same proportion as the segments on the other side of it.

... x/5 = 4.2/6

... x = 5·(4.2/6) . . . . multiply by 5

... x = 3.5
