Answer:

x = 46 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We use the Angle Bisector Theorem to help solve this.

When we draw out the triangle, we should see that our angle bisector theorem would equal to:

[tex]\frac{63.8}{58} =\frac{55}{x+4}[/tex]

We then cross multiply and solve for x:

63.8(x + 4) = 55(58)

63.8x + 255.2 = 3190

63.8x = 2934.8

x = 46
