Answer:

YZ = 8.5

Explanation:

Since RY is an angle bisector then the ratio of the sides of the triangle are equal to the corresponding ratio of the base, that is


(YX)/(YZ) =
(XR)/(ZR) , substitute values


(11.9)/(YZ) =
(7)/(5) ( cross- multiply )

7YZ = 59.5 ( divide both sides by 7 )

YZ = 8.5
