The bisector AD is drawn in an equilateral triangle ABC. The distance from point D to line AC is 6 cm

The bisector AD is drawn in an equilateral triangle ABC. The distance from point D to line AC is 6 cm. Find the distance from vertex A to line BC.

Since triangle ABC, by condition, is equilateral, all of its angles are 60.

AD is a bisector, then the angle DAC = 60/2 = 30.

The ADН triangle is rectangular, since the DН is perpendicular to the AC, then the leg of the DН lies against the angle of 60, then the hypotenuse AD = 2 * DН = 2 * 6 = 12 cm.

The bisector of the blood pressure of an equilateral triangle is also its height, then from point A to the side BC 12 cm.

Answer: From point A to BC 12 cm.
