    Question

    In △XYZ, if XY = 5 cm, XZ = 7 cm and Q is a point on YZ such that XQ bisects ∠X, then YQ : QZ is:

    A.

    5 : 7

    B.

    7 : 12

    C.

    7 : 5

    D.

    5 : 12

    Correct option is A

    Given:
    △XYZ with XY = 5 cm and XZ = 7 cm.
    Q is a point on YZ such that XQ bisects ∠X.
    Concept Used:
    According to the Angle Bisector Theorem, if a point Q lies on side YZ of △XYZ such that XQ bisects ∠X, then:
    YQQZ=XYXZ\frac{YQ}{QZ} = \frac{XY}{XZ}​​
    Solution:  
    Substituting the values of XY and XZ:
    YQQZ=57\frac{YQ}{QZ} = \frac{5}{7}​​
    Thus, The ratio YQ : QZ is 5 : 7.
