Point C lies on the segment AB. Find the length AC if AB = 38 cm and CB = 29 cm

If point C lies on the segment AB, then it divides the segment AB into two parts and AB = AC + CB, where AB = 38 cm is the total length of the segment,

CB = 29 cm, is the length of one of the parts of this segment.

38 = AC + 29;

AC = 38 – 29;

AC = 9.

Answer: the length of the AC segment is 9 cm.
