Correct Answer: 18 cm
Solution : The given triangle is isosceles. In $\triangle XPY$ and $\triangle XPZ$ $XY = XZ$ (given) $XP = XP$ (common) $\angle XPY = \angle XZY$ (isosceles triangle) $\triangle XPY \cong \triangle XPZ$ $\therefore YP=PZ=9\ \text{cm}$ $YZ=YP+PZ = 9+9=18\ \text{cm}$ Hence, the correct answer is 18 cm.
