2025 AMC 10B Problem 13

Place the right angle at $C = (0,0),$ the short leg $CB = 1$ with $B = (1, 0),$ and the long leg $CA = \sqrt3$ with $A = (0, \sqrt3).$ The altitude from $C$ to hypotenuse $AB$ has foot $H = \left(\tfrac34, \tfrac{\sqrt3}{4}\right)$ and runs along $x = \sqrt3\,y.$ The median from $A$ to the midpoint $\left(\tfrac12, 0\right)$ of $CB$ meets that altitude at $\left(\tfrac37, \tfrac{\sqrt3}{7}\right).$ This cuts $CH$ (length $\tfrac{\sqrt3}{2}$) into $\tfrac{4\sqrt3}{14}$ and $\tfrac{3\sqrt3}{14},$ so $x = \tfrac{3\sqrt3}{14}$ and $\dfrac{x}{x + y} = \dfrac{\frac{3\sqrt3}{14}}{\frac{\sqrt3}{2}} = \dfrac{3}{7}.$ Thus, A is the correct answer.
