Question

1. if line bx is a bisector of segment ac, and ab = 6, ac = 12, what is the length of cx? 6 12 3 9

Explanation:

Step1: Recall bisector property

A bisector of a segment divides it into two equal - length sub - segments. So if BX bisects AC, then $AX = CX=\frac{1}{2}AC$.

Step2: Substitute the value of AC

Given $AC = 12$. Then $CX=\frac{1}{2}\times12$.
$CX = 6$

Answer:

A. 6
