Textbook Problem

In right Δ A D C , D C = 5 and A C = 5 3 . If A D → bisects ∠ B A C , find B D .

To determine

To find:

BD.

Explanation

Given:

In a right ΔABC with right ∠C, AD→ bisects ∠BAC and DC=5,AC=53.

Theorem used:

Angle bisector theorem:

If a ray bisects one angle of a triangle, then it divides the opposite side into segments whose lengths are proportional to the lengths of the two sides that form the bisected angle.

Calculation:

Consider a right ΔABC.

Given that AD→ bisects ∠BAC.

By angle bisector theorem, we get

ABAC=BDDC

⇒ACDC=ABBD

We have DC=5,AC=53.

535=ABBD31=ABBD

⇒AB:BD=3:1

Let AB=3x,BD=x

From the figure we see that, BC=BD+DC

⇒BC=x+5

Consider the right triangle ABC with right angle at C
