Answer:

AC = 15 units

Explanation:

Since BD is an angle bisector then it divides the opposite side into segments that are proportional to the other 2 sides, that is


(AB)/(BC) =
(AD)/(DC) , substitute values


(12)/(18) =
(6)/(x) ( cross- multiply )

12x = 108 ( divide both sides by 12 )

x = 9

Then

AC = 6 + 9 = 15 units
