ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral in which AB = 15 cm, BC = 12 cm and CD = 10 cm. If AC bisects BD, then what is the measure of AD?
Given ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral where AB=15,BC= 12,CD =10Â
is given below diagramÂ
from the above diagram AC bisects BDÂ
$$\triangle is similar \triangle BCDÂ
$$ \frac{AB}{AD} = \frac{DC}{BC} $$
$$\Rightarrow \frac{15}{AD} = \frac{10}{12}$$
$$\Rightarrow AD = \frac{15\times 12} {10} $$
$$\Rightarrow AD = 18 cmÂ
therefore Option (C) 18 cm AnsÂ
