The two pairs of values of x and y such that line ST || side QR are as follows:
Given,
PS = 3, SQ = 6, QR = 5, PT = x and TR = y.
Consider the attached figure while going through the following steps.
ST || QR (given)
⇒ Δ PST ~ Δ PQR
⇒ PT / PR = PS / PQ
⇒ x / x+y = 3/9
⇒ x / x+y = 1/3
⇒ 3x = x + y
∴ 2x = y
Let,
x = 2 then y = 2x = 2 × 2 = 4
x = 5 then y = 2x = 2 × 5 = 10
The two pairs of values of x and y such that line ST || side QR are (2, 4) and (5, 10)
