Question

9. If AB, AC, PQ are tangents and AB = 5 cm, find the perimeter of triangle APQ
​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Since AB and AC are the tangents from the same point A

∴AB=AC=5cm

Similarly, BP=PX and XQ=QC

Perimeter of ΔAPQ=AP+AQ+PQ

=AP+AQ+(PX+XQ)

=(AP+PX)+(AQ+XQ)

=(AP+BP)+(AQ+QC)

=AB+AC=5+5=10cm.
