Answer:

AC = 9 in

Explanation:

We have two triangles

Triangle APC and triangle BPC

Side AP = side BP

Side CP is common

Angle P is also common

So side , angle and side are same for both triangles

Two sides are same for both triangles and included angle is also same

So they are congruent

Triangle APC is congruent to triangle BPC

Hence AC = CB

BC= 9 inches

So AC = 9 inches
