Answer 1

At what angle is this line supposed to meet the side AC?

Answer 2

There is no other information

Answer 3

You may want to assume it meets AC at a right angle then

Answer 4

That information is not given and although the drawing is not to scale it is not drawn as a right angle.

Answer 5

Can you post the figure?

Answer 6

are we using a trigonometric argument?

Answer 9

thanks anyway I think there is info missing in the problem

Answer 10

yes I agree

Answer 11

based on the given information you could say 0<AB<25

Answer 12

which is kind of silly...
