Question

in triangle abc d,e,f are midpoints ab is 5.8 cm ef is 6 cm and fd is 5 cm find bc and ac​

Answer 1

Answer:

Given,

AB=6 cm,BC=4.8 cm and CA=5.6 cm

D,E and F are the mid points of sides BC,CA and AB of △ABC

To find: The perimeter of △DEF

Given,

E and F are the midpoints of sides CA and AB

⇒AE=EC and AF=FD

∴

EC

×5.6=2.8 cm

∴ Perimeter of △DEF=DE+EF+FD

=3+2.4+2.8

=8.2 cm
