Question

In given figure , MN || QR if PM = x cm,
MQ= 10 cm, PN= (x - 2) cm, NR =6cm, then
find x.​

Answer 1

Answer:

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: AD = 3.6 cm, AB = 9 cm and AE = 2.4 cm

DE ll BC

Since, DE ll BC, by equal intercept

Theorem,

AD/BD =AE/EC

x/x-2 = x+2/x-1

x(x-1) = x(x-2)(x+2)

x2 -x = x2-4

= x=4
