Question

Q.In a A ABC, P and Q are points on sides AB and AC
respectively, such that PQ || BC. IF AP=2.4 cm, AQ=2 cm,
QC = 3 cm and BC = 6 cm, find AB and PQ.
​

Answer 1

Answer:

In triangle ABC,

By applying B.P.T,

AP/PB=AQ/QC

=2.4/PB=2/3

=2.4×3=2PB

=7.2/2=PB

=PB=3.6

AB=AP+PB

=2.4+3.6

=6
