Respuesta :

34/95.2 = YK/168
YK = 168 * 34 /95.2
YK = 60

x = 34 + YK
x = 34 + 60
x = 94

answer
x = 94 cm

Segment TX bisects angle T

So  the "Angle Bisector" Theorem says that an angle bisector of a triangle will divide the opposite side into two segments that are proportional to the other two sides of the triangle.

So according to the angle bisector theorem in triangle VTK,

[tex] \frac{VT}{TK} = \frac{VY}{YK} [/tex]

[tex] \frac{95.2}{168} = \frac{34}{YK} [/tex]

cross multiply

[tex] 95.2\times (YK) = 168 \times 34 [/tex]

[tex] 95.2\times (YK)   [/tex] = 5712

To  find YK, divide both side by 95.2

[tex] \frac{95.2\times (YK) }{95.2} = \frac{5712}{95.2} [/tex]

YK = 60

VK = x = VY + YK

x = 34 + 60

x = 94 cm
