Verified Answer :

The answer would be 3 ft. Hope this helps!

Observe the given figure,

Since, Line ST is parallel to the line AC.

Therefore, By Basic Proportionality Theorem which states

" If a line is parallel to a side of a triangle which intersects the other sides into two distinct points, then the line divides those sides in proportion".

Therefore, \(\frac{SB}{SA} = \frac{BT}{TC}\)

\(\frac{10}{SA} = \frac{9}{2.7}\)

By cross multiplying, we get

\(SA = \frac{2.7 \times 10}{9}\)

SA = 3 ft

Therefore, the length of SA is 3 feet.
