In a , AD is the bisector of . If AB = 6 cm, AC = 5 cm and BD = 3 cm„ then DC =

Given AD is the bisector of ∠BAC. AB = 6 cm, AC = 5 cm and BD = 3 cm.


We know that the internal bisector of angle of a triangle divides the opposite side internally in the ratio of the sides containing the angle.




∴ DC = 2.5 cm
