Answer
Correct choice: (A)
正确答案:(A)
Solution
Without loss of generality, let $\triangle ABC$ have side-lengths $AB=2, BC=2\sqrt{3},$ and $AC=4.$ Let $D$ be the foot of the perpendicular from $B$ to $\overline{AC}, \ E$ be the midpoint of $\overline{AB},$ and $F$ be the intersection of $\overline{CE}$ and $\overline{BD}.$ Note that $\triangle ADB$ and $\triangle BDC$ are both $30^\circ{-}60^\circ{-}90^\circ$ triangles. From the side-length ratio, we get $AD=1$ and $DC=3.$
We obtain the following diagram:
From here, we will proceed with mass points. Throughout this solution, we will use $W_P$ to denote the weight of point $P.$
Let $W_C=1.$ Since $3AD=DC,$ it follows that $W_A=3$ and $W_D=W_C+W_A=4.$ Since $AE=EB$ and $W_A=3,$ it follows that $W_B=3.$
Now we focus on $\overline{BD}:$ Since $W_B=3$ and $W_D=4,$ we have $\frac{DF}{FB}=\frac xy=\frac34.$ Therefore, the answer is \[\frac{x}{x+y}=\frac{3}{3+4}=\boxed{\textbf{(A) } \dfrac{3}{7}}.\]
不失一般性,令 $\triangle ABC$ 的边长为 $AB=2, BC=2\sqrt{3},$ 和 $AC=4$。令 $D$ 为从 $B$ 到 $\overline{AC}$ 的垂足,$E$ 为 $\overline{AB}$ 的中点,$F$ 为 $\overline{CE}$ 和 $\overline{BD}$ 的交点。注意 $\triangle ADB$ 和 $\triangle BDC$ 均为 $30^\circ{-}60^\circ{-}90^\circ$ 三角形。由边长比例,得 $AD=1$ 和 $DC=3$。
我们得到如下图:
此处我们使用质量点法。全篇中用 $W_P$ 表示点 $P$ 的质量。
令 $W_C=1$。由于 $3AD=DC$,有 $W_A=3$ 和 $W_D=W_C+W_A=4$。由于 $AE=EB$ 和 $W_A=3$,有 $W_B=3$。
现在关注 $\overline{BD}$:由于 $W_B=3$ 和 $W_D=4$,我们有 $\frac{DF}{FB}=\frac xy=\frac34$。因此答案为 \[\frac{x}{x+y}=\frac{3}{3+4}=\boxed{\textbf{(A) } \dfrac{3}{7}}.\]
