Point A is the point of concurrency of the angle bisectors of ΔDEF.
Point A is the point of concurrency of triangle D E F. Lines are drawn from each point of the triangle to point A. Lines are drawn from point A to the sides of the triangle to form right angles and line segments A X, A Y, and A Z. The length of F A is 6 centimeters, the length of A D is 5 centimeters, the length of A X is 3 centimeters, and the length of Y D is 4 centimeters.

What is the length of ZA?
ZA = 3cm
ZA = 4cm
ZA = 5cm
ZA = 6cm


Sagot :

The correct answer is option A which is ZA = 3 cm

What is the triangle?

Triangle is a shape made of three sides in a two-dimensional plane. the sum of the three angles is 180 degrees.

The triangle is shown below.

From the triangle, A  is the concurrency point of angle bisectors of all vertices.

Consider ΔAYD,

Using the Pythagorean theorem,

AD² = AY² + YD²

5² = AY² + 4²

25 = AY² + 16

AY² = 25 - 16

AY² = 9

AY = √9 = 3 cm

Consider triangles ADY and ADZ.

∠AYD ≅∠AZD=90

∠ADY≅∠ADZ ( Angle bisector)

AD ≡ AD (common side)

The two triangles are congruent by the AAS postulate.

Therefore, by CPCTE, AY=ZA=3 cm
