Given: Triangle ABC with AB = 4 cm, BC = 6 cm, and . The line CX is perpendicular to the line ABX.
Part i
The angle CBX
Identify the relationship between and .
Since A, B, and X are points on a straight line, and are supplementary angles.
Substitute the given value for and solve for .
The angle CBX is .
Part ii
The length AC
Apply the Cosine Rule to triangle ABC.
The Cosine Rule states . Here, cm, cm, and .
Substitute the given values into the Cosine Rule.
Calculate the values.
We know .
Calculate the numerical value for AC.
The length AC is approximately .
Part iii
The length CX
Identify the relevant triangle and known values.
Since CX is perpendicular to ABX, is a right-angled triangle with the right angle at X (). We know BC = 6 cm (hypotenuse) and from part i).
Use trigonometry to find CX.
In a right-angled triangle, .
Substitute the known values and solve for CX.
We know .
The length CX is .
Part iv
The length BC
State the given value.
The problem statement explicitly gives the length of BC.
The length BC is .
