Given : PS = 2, SQ=6 QR = 5, PT =  x & TR = y

To Find : the pair of value of x &y such that ST II side QR.

Solution:

Thales theorem ( BPT)

if a line is drawn parallel to one side of a triangle intersecting the other two sides, then it divides the two sides in the same ratio.

ST II  QR

=>  PS/SQ  =  PT / TR

=>   2 / 6  =  x/y

=> 1/3  = x/ y

=> y = 3x

PR = PT + TR  = x + 3x  = 4x

in ΔPQR

PQ = PS + SQ = 2 + 6 = 8

QR = 5

PR = 4x

Sum of two sides of a triangle is > third side

=> 5 + 4x  >  8

=> 4x  >  3

also

5 + 8 >  4x

=> 13 > 4x

=>   3 < 4x  <  13

=> x = 1  , 2  , 3    ( considering integral values only )

   y  = 3  , 6  , 9

the pair of value of x & y  = ( 1 , 3) , ( 2 , 6) and (  3, 9)
