Question

Find the value of x.

Answer 1

x = 17.5

Explanation:

the segment inside the triangle is an angle bisector and divides the opposite side into segments that are proportional to the other 2 sides, so

`(7)/(4)` =
`(x)/(10)` ( cross- multiply )

4x = 70 ( divide both sides by 4 )

x = 17.5
