Step-by-step explanation:
From the question it is given that,
∠ABD=∠CAD
AB=5cm,AC=3cm and AD=4cm
Now, consider the △ABC and △ACD
∠C=∠C … [common angle for both triangles]
∠ABC=∠CAD … [from the question]
So, △ABC∼△ACD
Then, AB/AD=BC/AC=AC/DC
(i) Consider AB/AD=BC/AC
5/4=BC/3
BC=(5×3)/4
BC=15/4
BC=3.75cm
(ii) Consider AB/AD=AC/DC
5/4=3/DC
DC=(3×4)/5
DC=12/5
Dc=2.4cm
(iii) Consider the △ABC and △ACD
∠CAD=∠ABC … [from the question]
∠ACD=∠ACB … [common angle for both triangle]
Therefore, △ACD∼△ABC
Then, area of △ACD/area of △ABC=AD

/AB

=4

/5

=16/25
Therefore, area of △ACD : area of △BCA is 16:25.
