The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will analyze the triangle ABC with the given conditions: ### Step 1: Understand the Triangle and Given Information - We have triangle ABC. - CD is the angle bisector of angle C, which means that angle ACD = angle BCD. - We know that angle B = 59°. - M is a point on CD such that AD = AM. ### Step 2: Define Angles Since CD is the angle bisector, we can denote: - Let angle ACD = x - Therefore, angle BCD = x as well (because CD bisects angle C). ### Step 3: Use the Exterior Angle Theorem In triangle BDC, the exterior angle ADC can be expressed as: - ADC = angle B + angle BCD - Thus, ADC = 59° + x. ### Step 4: Relate Angles ADM and AMD Since AD = AM, triangles ADM and AMD are isosceles triangles. Therefore: - angle ADM = angle AMD. ### Step 5: Establish the Relationship Between Angles From the previous steps, we know: - angle ADC = angle ADM (because they are the same angle). - Therefore, angle ADM = 59° + x. ### Step 6: Analyze Triangle AMC In triangle AMC, we can apply the exterior angle theorem again: - angle AMD = angle MAC + angle ACM. - We know angle ACM = x (since it is equal to angle ACD). ### Step 7: Substitute Values Now we can substitute the values: - angle AMD = 59° + x, - angle ACM = x. So we have: - 59° + x = angle MAC + x. ### Step 8: Solve for angle MAC By simplifying the equation: - 59° + x - x = angle MAC, - Therefore, angle MAC = 59°. ### Final Answer Thus, angle MAC = 59°. ---
