Question

xy is drawn parallel to the base BC of triangle ABC cutting AB at X and AC at y if AB = 4BX and yc = 2 cm then find AY.

Give answer step by step with full explaination... ​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

AB = 4Bx

yC = 2 cm

Ay= ?

AB = Ax+Bx

4Bx= Ax+Bx

4Bx-Bx = Ax

Ax = 3Bx

Bx = AB- Ax

Bx = 4Bx- 3Bx

Bx =Bx

now,

Ax/Bx = Ay/yC

3Bx/Bx = Ay/2

3 = Ay/2

Ay = 6

Answer 2

Answer:

ay is 6cm...............
