Answer:
CB/CQ = √3
Step-by-step explanation:
In a triangle abc, pq is a straight line parallel to ac, such that area abc: area pbq = 3:1then cb:cq is equal to
PQ || AC
=> ΔBPQ ≅ ΔBAC
area abc: area pbq = 3: 1
in Similar Triangles
Area Ratio ∝ Side Ratio²
=> 3/1 = (CB/CQ)²
=> CB/CQ = √3
Answer:√3(√3+1)/2
Step-by-step explanation:
As we know from the question both ∆abc and ∆pqb are similar triangles
Now (∆abc area/∆pqb area)=(bc/bq)^2
(3/1)=(bc/bq)^2
(bc/bq)=√3/1
Let bc=√3x , bq=x
But we need bc/cq
cq=bc-bq
=√3x-x
=X(√3-1)
Now bc/cq=√3x/(√3-1)x
=√3/(√3-1)
To get the another answer divide and multiply the above result with (√3+1)
Then bc/cq =√3(√3+1)/2
