(ii) If BD = 2 cm, AB = 5 cm and DC = 3 cm, find AC. (C.B.S.E. 1992)
(iii) If AB = 3.5 cm, AC = 4.2 cm and DC = 2.8 cm, find BD. (C.B.S.E. 1992)
(iv) If AB = 10 cm, AC = 14 cm and BC = 6 cm, find BD and DC.
(v) If AC = 4.2 cm, DC = 6 cm and BC = 10 cm, find AB. (C.B.S.E. 1997C)
(vi) If AB = 5.6 cm, AC = 6 cm and DC = 3 cm, find BC. (C.B.S.E. 2001C)
(vii) If AD = 5.6 cm, BC = 6 cm and BD = 3.2 cm, find AC. (C.B.S.E. 2001C)
(viii) If AB = 10 cm, AC = 6 cm and BC = 12 cm, find BD and DC. (C.B.S.E. 2001)

Answer - 1 : -

In ∆ABC, AD is the angle bisector of ∠A which meet BC at D
(i) BD = 2.5 cm, AB = 5 cm and AC = 4.2 cm
=> 6x = 10 (12 – x) = 120 – 10x
=> 6x + 10x = 120
=> 16x = 120
x = 7.5
BD = 7.5 cm and DC = 12 – 7.5 = 4.5 cm

Question - 2 : - In the figure, AE is the bisector of the exterior ∠CAD meeting BC produced in E. If AB = 10 cm, AC = 6 cm and BC = 12 cm, find CE.

Answer - 2 : -

In ∆ABC, AE is the bisector of exterior ∠A which meets BC produced at E.
AB = 10 cm, AC = 6 cm, BC = 12 cm Let CE = x, then BE = BC + CE = (12 + x)

Question - 3 : - In the figure, ∆ABC is a triangle such that AB/AC = BD/DC , ∠B = 70°, ∠C = 50°. Find ∠BAD.

Answer - 3 : -


Question - 4 : -
In the figure, check whether AD is the bisector of ∠A of ∆ABC in each of the following :
 
(i) AB = 5 cm, AC = 10 cm, BD = 1.5 cm and CD = 3.5 cm
(ii) AB = 4 cm, AC = 6 cm, BD = 1.6 cm and CD = 2.4 cm
(iii) AB = 8 cm, AC = 24 cm, BD = 6 cm and BC = 24 cm
(iv) AB = 6 cm, AC = 8 cm, BD = 1.5 cm and CD = 2 cm
(v) AB = 5 cm, AC = 12 cm, BD = 2.5 cm and BC = 9 cm

Answer - 4 : - (i) AB = 5 cm, AC = 10 cm, BD = 1.5 cm, CD = 3.5 cm

Question - 5 : - In figure, AD bisects ∠A, AB = 12 cm AC = 20 cm, and BD = 5 cm. Determine CD.

Answer - 5 : -


Question - 6 : - In the figure, In ∆ABC, if ∠1 = ∠2, prove that AB/AC = BD/DC.

Answer - 6 : -

Given : In ∆ABC,
AD is a line drawn from A meeting BC in D Such that ∠1 = ∠2

Question - 7 : - D, E and F are the points on sides BC, CA and AB respectively of ∆ABC such that AD bisects ∠A, BE bisects ∠B and CF bisects ∠C. If AB = 5 cm, BC = 8 cm and CA = 4 cm, determine AF, CE and BD.

Answer - 7 : -

In ∆ABC, AD, BE and CF are the bisector of ∠A, ∠B and ∠C respectively
AB = 5 cm, BC = 8 cm and CA = 4 cm
