उत्तर
We have,
∠BAD = ∠CAD
We know that, the internal bisector of an angle of a triangle divides the opposite side internally in the ratio of the sides containing the angle.
`therefore"BD"/"DC"="AB"/"AC"`
`rArr2.5/"DC"=5/4.2`
`rArr"DC"=(2.5xx4.2)/5`
`=(25xx42)/(5xx100)=(5xx42)/100=210/100=2.1` cm
∴ DC = 2.1 cm
