Question

PLEASE HELP! GEOMETRY. I'M LOST! O.o

LO bisects ∠NLM, LM=18, NO=4, and LN=10
What is the value of x?
A. 7.2
B. 45
C. 5.43
D. 2.22

Answer 1

Answer: the correct answer is A

Explanation:

just took the test and got 100% good luck

Answer 2

Explanation:

Alright, lets get started.

Please refer the diagram I have attached.

The diagram refers the angle bisector theorem.

Hence using this theorem in our given diagram:

`(LM)/(LN)=(x)/(ON)`

`(18)/(10)=(x)/(4)`

Cross multiplying,

`x=4*1.8 = 7.2`

Hence the answer is 7.2 : Answer (A)

Hope it will help :)
