Question

In the triangle ABC the mid-points of BC, AC, AB are P, Q and R respectively. If AC=21cm
BC=29cm, and AB = 30cm then calculate the perimeter of the quadrilateral ARPQ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Given: AB = 7 cm, BC = 8 cm, AC = 9 cm

In ∆ABC,

In a ΔABC, D, E and F are, respectively, the mid points of BC, CA and AB.

According to Midpoint Theorem:

EF = 1/2BC, DF = 1/2 AC and DE = 1/2 AB

Now, Perimeter of ∆DEF = DE + EF + DF

= 1/2 (AB + BC + AC)

= 1/2 (7 + 8 + 9)

= 12
