Given AD is the bisector of ∠BAC. AB = 8 cm, DC = 3 cm and BD = 6 cm.
We know that the internal bisector of angle of a triangle divides the opposite side internally in the ratio of the sides containing the angle.
⇒ \(\frac{AB}{AC}\) = \(\frac{BD}{DC}\)
⇒ \(\frac{8}{AC}\) = \(\frac{6}{3}\)
∴ AC = 4 cm
