Answer:

BD = 4.1

Step-by-step explanation:

DA is an angle bisector which also divides the opposite side of the angle it bisects in a way that it is proportional to tye other two sides.

By implication, we would have the following:

AB/BD = AC/DC

AB = 5.3

AC = 5.5

DC = 4.3

BD = ?

Plug in the values

5.3/BD = 5.5/4.3

Cross multiply

BD*5.5 = 4.3*5.3

BD*5.5 = 22.79

Divide both sides by 5.5

BD = 22.79/5.5

BD = 4.1 (to 1 decimal place)
