Answer:
Explanation:
Remark
An angle bisector sets up a triangle ratio that looks like the following proportion.
3x - 3 5x
====== = ====== Cross multiply
24 44
44*(3x-3) = 24*5x Remove the brackets on the left
132x - 132 = 24*5x Combine the right side
132x - 132 = 120x Add 132 to both sides
132x = 120x + 132 Subtract 120x from both sides
132x- 120x = 132 Combine
12x = 132 Divide by 12
x = 11
