Given :

Line WX bisects YZ at point W.

[tex]WZ=9\dfrac{5}{8}=\dfrac{77}{5}[/tex] .

To Find :

The length of YZ .

Solution :

Since , the point W bisect YZ .

So , it cuts YZ into two equal parts i.e YW and WZ .

Therefore , YW = WZ

Also , YZ = YW+WZ = 2WZ

[tex]YZ = 2\times \dfrac{77}{5}\\\\YZ=\dfrac{154}{5}\\\\YZ=30\dfrac{4}{5}[/tex]

Hence , this is the required solution .
