Question

In a rectangle ABCD, the diagonals intersect at P. If AC = 14cm, then PB =

Answer 1

Answer:

since AC=14cm

therefore,BD=14cm [ diagonals of a rectangle are equal]

Now,we know that diangonals of a rectangle bisect each other.

therefore, PB=PD

and BD= 2PB [ since P is the midpoint of BD]

=>14= 2PB

=>PB=14÷2

therefore, PB = 7
