| In the ABC triangle, the straight line MN is parallel to the AC side, divides the BC side into from the cut BN = 15 cm and NC = 5 cm, and the AB side into BM and AM. Find the length of the cut MN if AC = 15 cm.
1) What is the BC side?
ВN + NC = 15 + 5 = 20 cm
BC = 20 cm
2) What is the AC side?
ВN / ВС = MN / АС
15/20 = MN / 15
MN = (15 * 15) / 20
MN = 225/20
MN = 11.25 cm
Answer: The speaker side is 11.25 cm
