a: \(BC=\sqrt{9^2+12^2}=15\left(cm\right)\)
Xét ΔABC có AD là phân giác
nên BD/AB=CD/AC
=>BD/3=CD/4=(BD+CD)/(3+4)=15/7
=>BD=45/7cm; CD=60/7cm
Xét ΔCAB có DE//AB
nên DE/AB=CD/CB
=>DE/9=60/7:15=4/7
=>DE=36/7cm
b: \(S_{ACD}=\dfrac{1}{2}\cdot DE\cdot AC=\dfrac{1}{2}\cdot\dfrac{36}{7}\cdot12=\dfrac{216}{7}\left(cm^2\right)\)
\(S_{ACB}=\dfrac{1}{2}\cdot9\cdot12=6\cdot9=54\left(cm^2\right)\)
\(S_{ABD}=54-\dfrac{216}{7}=\dfrac{162}{7}\left(cm^2\right)\)
