1) Draw altitude BD.....this will bisect angle ABC
Then angle BCA = 30°
And since triangle BDC is a 30 - 60- 90 triangle...then CD = [√3 / 2] [ 6 √3] = 9
And CD = (1/2) AC
So AC = 2CD = 18
3) AO = BO and CO = DO
Then the angles opposite these sides = 45°
And since triangles ABO and DCO are 45 - 45 - 90 triangles
Then DO = DC/√2 and BO = AB / √2
So DO + BO = DC/√2 + AB/√2 = [ DC + AB ] / √2
And DO + BO = BD = [ DC + AB ] / √2 = [ 5 √2 ] / √2 = 5
4) Since QX bisects PQR, then angles PQX = RQX = QPX = 30°
Then angle QXP = 120°...so angle QXR = 60°
And triangles QRP and QRX are 30 - 60 - 90 triangles
So.........since QR is opposite a 30° angle, it is (1/2)PQ = (1/2) 4√3 = 2√3
So.......QX = [ 2 / √3 ] * [ 2√3 ] = 4
5) Since BAD is trisected, angle SAD = 30°
And triangle SAD is a 30 - 60 - 90 triangle
So.......AD = √3SD = √3 * 1 = √3
And angle TAD = 60° so triangle ATD is also a 30 - 60 - 90 triangle
And TD = √3 AD = √3 √3 = 3
So CD = CT + TD = 2√3 - 3 + 3 = 2√3
So......the area of ABCD = CD * AD = 2√3 * √3 = 6 units^2
