Answer:

(c) Point A is not on a bisector

Explanation:

The figure shows you AR > AT. Since AX is the same for both triangles, angle AXR must be greater than angle AXT. This means AX is not the bisector of angle X.

Since AT is perpendicular to XT, it cannot be the perpendicular bisector of XT. That bisector will intersect XT at its midpoint, not its end.

The marked distances show you that A is different distances from T and R.

The only statement that makes any sense is ...

Point A is not on a bisector.
