Answer:

150 yd

Explanation:

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


(250)/(375) =
(x)/(225) ( x is the distance from the hole to the oak tree )

Cross- multiply

375x = 56250 ( divide both sides by 375 )

x = 150

The hole is 150 yards from the oak tree.
