Need help solving for X
post ur question lol
oops sorry I rushed u mybad should have waited im sorry
ok so r there any multiple choice answers if not I believe u use pythegaerm theorem which I got 28
I took 15^2 and 24^2 so it looks like this \[c ^{2}=15^{2} + 24^{2} = \sqrt{801} = 28\]
no. thats not right. you dont know if any angles are right. so you cant use the pythagoereom theorem. all you have is an angle bisector
explain it then
so you would actually solve using a proportion based on the angle bisector thoerem so x 24 -- = --- 9 6 you can start to solve for x by cross multiplying
so 36?
yes. x=36 http://www.mathwarehouse.com/geometry/similar/triangles/angle-bisector-theorem.php
cross multiply 9(24)=6x 216=6x divide both sides by 6 x=36
