Answer:

19 > DB > 5

Step-by-step explanation:

In a triangle Δ ABC, AC = 7, and BC = 18.

Therefore, the length of the third side of the triangle Δ ABC i.e. length of AB can have a maximum value of < (7 + 18) i.e. 25 and the minimum value of the length AB will be > (18 - 7) i.e. 11

Hence, the length of AB will be given by 25 > AB > 11.

Now, AB = AD + DB = 6 + DB {Since length of AD is given to be 6}

Therefore, 25 > 6 + DB > 11

⇒ 19 > DB > 5 (Answer)
