**Given:**  

\(\triangle ABC,\)  
\(BC = 6 \, \text{cm},\)  
\(CD \perp AB,\)  
\(m \angle ACB = 90^\circ,\)  
\(m \angle ACD = 60^\circ\)

**Find:** \(AD\)

**Diagram Explanation:**

The diagram shows triangle \(\triangle ABC\) where angle \(\angle ACB\) is 90 degrees, indicating that it is a right triangle. 

- Point \(C\) is the right-angle vertex.
- Line \(CD\) is perpendicular to line \(AB\), forming two right angles at points \(C\) and \(D\).
- Angle \(\angle ACD\) measures 60 degrees.
- The length of \(BC\) is 6 cm.

We need to find the length of segment \(AD\).

**Solution Box:**

AD = \(\_\_\_\) cm
