Answer:

AC = 4.5 units

Explanation:

Given question is incomplete without the figure; find the figure attached.

By applying angle bisector theorem in the given triangle ABC,

(Since, AD is the angle bisector of ∠BAC)


(AC)/(CD)=(AB)/(BD)


(AC)/(2.5)= (6.8)/(3.8)

AC =
(6.8* 2.5)/(3.8)

AC = 4.47

AC ≈ 4.5 units

Length of side AC in the given triangle = 4.5 units.

\angle DAC=\angle BAD∠DAC=∠BADangle, D, A, C, equals, angle, B, A, D. What is the-example-1
