$\therefore \Delta AHK \sim \Delta ABC$ (given)
$$\begin{aligned}& \frac{HK}{BC} = \frac{AK}{AC} \\ & \frac{6.4}{3.2} = \frac{8.0}{AC} \\ & \Rightarrow AC = 4\end{aligned}$$ cm
$$\begin{aligned}& \frac{HK}{BC} = \frac{AK}{AC} \\ & \frac{6.4}{3.2} = \frac{8.0}{AC} \\ & \Rightarrow AC = 4\end{aligned}$$ cm
