Use the diagram and the given information to answer each question.

How to solve

If DE is parallel to BC, it divides the two sides proportionally: AD/DB = AE/EC. If AD bisects ∠A of △ABC, it divides BC in the ratio of the other two sides: BD/DC = AB/AC. Write the proportion, cross-multiply and solve.

Example

DE ∥ BC. Find x.
