Solution:

Given that;

Allison drew a map of where she and her friends live.

Allison's house is at point A, and her friends live at points B, C, and D

Where, line segment AD is a perpendicular bisector of BC,

And a perpendicular bisector is a line segment which bisects another line segment at 90 degrees, and divides it into two equal parts..

Since, AD is a perpendicular bisector of BC, then

[tex]\begin{gathered} BD=CD=3 \\ \angle ADB=\angle ADC \\ And,\text{ }AD=CD \\ Thus, \\ \Delta ADB\cong\Delta ADC\text{ \lparen SAS\rparen} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Hence,

[tex]AB=AC=4.24[/tex]

The measure of AC is 4.24
