Question

Point A is the point of concurrency of the angle bisectors of ΔDEF. Point A is the point of concurrency of triangle D E F. Lines are drawn from each point of the triangle to point A. Lines are drawn from point A to the sides of the triangle to form right angles and line segments A X, A Y, and A Z. The length of F A is 6 centimeters, the length of A D is 5 centimeters, the length of A X is 3 centimeters, and the length of Y D is 4 centimeters. What is the length of ZA?

Answer 1

a

Explanation:

Answer 2

ZA = 3 cm

Explanation:

Point A is the incenter of the triangle, so segments AX, AY, and AZ are radii of the circle. They are all the same length, given as 3 cm and confirmed by 3-4-5 right triangle AYD.

ZA = 3 cm
