Although the diagram in this video does look like an angle of 60 degrees, it is bad to get accustomed to assuming things about the problem from the diagram. When you wrote sin^-1(sqrt(3)/2) that could have two solutions of 60 degrees and 120 degrees. From the diagram you saw it is 60 degrees, but in general this is a bad thing to do and you must consider the different solutions and eliminate possible solutions from other info in the problem. This actually has a significant impact on the problem, as with 60 degrees x is 12sqrt(3)/7 but with 120 degrees x is 12/7. For anyone doing competitive maths, please take note of this, it is really important.
@@LuisdeBritoCamacho I looked at your proof and you’re wrong. Solving for AB gives 2 solutions not one. This accounts for the possibility of theta being 60 degrees or 120 degrees.

At 4:05, there are a number of ways to find that the areas of ΔACD and ΔBCD are in the ratio 3:4. One way is to compare the formulas Area = (1/2) ab sin(c) and find that they are the same except for the sides of length 3 and 4. Alternatively, the angle bisector divides the side in the ratio of the other two sides, so, if AD is given length 3m, BD has length 4m. If these are the bases of ΔACD and ΔBCD, the height is common and areas are in the ratio 3:4. So, ΔACD has 3/7 the area of ΔABC, (1/2)(3)(x)sin(30°) = (3/7)(3√3), and x = (12√3)/7, as PreMath also found.
@@sergeyvinns931 No, x is not the height. Drop a perpendicular from C to AB. If AD and BD are treated as the bases of ΔACD and ΔBCD respectively, the length of the perpendicular is the common height, let's call it h. Area ΔACD = (1/2)(AD)(h) = (1/2)(3m)(h) = 3mh/2. Area ΔBCD = (1/2)(BD)(h) = (1/2)(4m)(h) = 4mh/2. Ratio of areas = 3:4. Knowing 2 sides and the area of ΔABC and AB is the third side, length AB can be found from Heron's formula. Then, h can be computed from Area ΔABC = (1/2)(AB)(h). However, we need x, not h. This is a harder way to compute x, but here goes. Compute m from AB = AD + BD = 3m + 4m = 7m. Then use the formula (CD)² = (AD)(BD). CD = x, so x² = 12m².

I tried to do it with heron's theorem and found out that line AB could either be sqrt(13) or sqrt(37) so please be a bit careful about that next time. Like everyone else has mentioned, sine sqrt(3)/2 could be 120 degrees too
Let's find x:

First of all we calculate the missing side length by using the formula of Heron for the area of the triangle:
a = BC = 4
b = AC = 3
c = AB = ?
s = (a + b + c)/2 = (4 + 3 + c)/2 = (7 + c)/2
A(ABC) = √[s*(s − a)*(s − b)*(s − c)]
3√3 = √{[(7 + c)/2]*[(7 + c)/2 − 4]*[(7 + c)/2 − 3]*[(7 + c)/2 − c]}
3√3 = √{[(7 + c)/2]*[(c − 1)/2]*[(c + 1)/2]*[(7 − c)/2]}
27 = [(7 + c)/2]*[(c − 1)/2]*[(c + 1)/2]*[(7 − c)/2]
27 = (7 + c)*(7 − c)*(c − 1)*(c + 1)/16
27*16 = (49 − c²)*(c² − 1)
36*12 = (49 − c²)*(c² − 1)
⇒ 36 = 49 − c² ∧ 12 = c² − 1 ⇒ c² = 13 ⇒ c = √13
∨ 12 = 49 − c² ∧ 36 = c² − 1 ⇒ c² = 37 ⇒ c = √37
According to the angle bisector theorem we obtain:
BD/AD = BC/AC = 4/3 ⇒ BD = (4/7)*AB ∧ AD = (3/7)*AB
c = √13 ⇒ BD = (4/7)*√13 ∧ AD = (3/7)*√13
c = √37 ⇒ BD = (4/7)*√37 ∧ AD = (3/7)*√37
Now we are able to calculate the length of the angle bisector:
CD² = x² = AC*BC − AD*BC
First case: c = √13
x² = 3*4 − (3/7)*√13*(4/7)*√13 = 12 − 12*13/49 = 12*49/49 − 12*13/49 = 12*36/49 ⇒ x = (12/7)√3
Second case: c = √37
x² = 3*4 − (3/7)*√37*(4/7)*√37 = 12 − 12*37/49 = 12*49/49 − 12*37/49 = 12*12/49 ⇒ x = 12/7

Well done ! But when sin(x) = sqrt(3)/2, then x = 60° or x=120°, then we got 2 distinct ways ;)

Thanks, but more algebra problems for us.

1/ Label the amgle ACB as 2 Alpha and AD=m, BD=n
We have: Area of triangle ABC= 1/2 x 3x 4 sin (2alpha)=3sqrt3-> sin (2alpha)= 3 sqrt3/2 --> 2 alpha= 60 degrees-> alpha = 30 degrees.
2/ Consider the two trisngles ACD and BCD They have the same height ( from the vertex C to AB) so their the ratio of their areas= ratio of the two bases= m/n
CD is the bisector of angle ACB so, m/n = 3/4
Let S and S’ be the area of the triangle ACD and BCD we have:
S/S’ = 3/4-> S/3=S’/4=(S+S’)/(3+4)=3sqrt3/7
--> Area of ACD=9sqrt3/7

Nice! φ = 30°; ∆ ABC → AB = AD + BD = a + b; AC = 3; BC = 4; CD = x = ?
BCD = DCA = δ; (1/2)sin(2δ)12 = 3√3 → sin(2δ) = √3/2 = sin(2φ) → δ = φ → cos(2φ) = sin(φ) = 1/2
3/a = 4/b → b = 4a/3 → a + b = 7a/3 → 49a^2/9 = 9 + 16 - 2(3)(4)cos(2φ) →
a = 3√13/7 → b = 4√13/7 → ab = 36(12)/49 → x^2 = 12 - ab = 12√3/7
or: φ = 30°; 3/a = 4/b → b = 4a/3 → a + b = 7a/3 → 49a^2/9 = 25 - 12 →
a = 3√13/7 → b = 4√13/7 → (1/2)sin(2δ)12 = 3√3 → sin(δ) = sin(φ) = 1/2
area ∆ ADC = (3/7)(3√3) = 9√3/7 → (1/2)sin(φ)3x = 3x/4 = 9√3/7 → x = (9/7)(4/3)√3 = 12√3/7
