BD is the angle bisector of

Note: Let us consider, we need to find the and .

Given:

In the given figure, BD is the angle bisector of ABC.

To find:

The and .

Solution:

BD is the angle bisector of ABC. So,

Divide both sides by 2.

Now,

And,

Therefore, and .

the given 6 = w/p is equivalent to 6p = w, where w is the total area of the walls and p is the area covered by a single can of paint.

knowing that 6 cans of paint will be needed, 6p = w becomes 6(6) = w = 36.   this tells us that the total area to be painted is 36 square units.
