In triangle ABC, let angle A be an acute angle measuring $30^{ ext{o}}$. Point D lies on side BC such that segment AD is the bisector of angle A, dividing it into two equal angles.
Given that side AB has a length of 10 units and side AC has a length of 8 units, determine the relationship between the following quantities:
Quantity A: The length of segment AD (the angle bisector).
Quantity B: The length of segment BC.
