Answer:

The correct option is;


\overline{YZ}\left | \right | \overline{AC}

Explanation:

The dimensions given are;

YX = 2 × AX (A = midpoint of YX)

ZX = 2 × CX (C = midpoint of ZX)

∠X and ∠X are congruent (Reflexive property)

Therefore, triangle XAC is similar to triangle XYZ (SAS similarity theorem)

Since ∠XYZ = ∠XAC segments YZ and AC are parallel from having equal angle on the same side of the transversal YX

Therefore the correct option should be;


\overline{YZ}\left | \right | \overline{AC}
