Given :- A circle touches the aside EF of ∆DEF at P and touches sides DE and DF at Q and R resp. when produced. show that DQ=1/2 (perimeter of ∆DEF) ?
Solution :-
we know that,
- Tangents drawn from an external point to a circle are equal in length.
So,
- DQ = DR ----------(1)
- EQ = EP ----------(2)
- FR = FP --------- (3)
From diagram ,
→ DQ = DE + EQ
Putting value of EQ from (2),
→ DQ = DE + EP -------------- (4)
Similarly,
→ DQ = DR (From (1) )
→ DQ = DF + FR
Putting value of FR from (3) ,
→ DQ = DF + FP ------------- (5)
adding (4) and (5) we get,
→ DQ + DQ = (DE + EP) + (DF + FP)
→ 2DQ = DE + DF + (EP + FP)
→ 2DQ = DE + DF + EF
→ 2DQ = Perimeter of ∆DEF
→ DQ = (1/2)[Perimeter of ∆DEF] . (Proved).
