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
