उत्तर
Analysis:
∆PQR ∼ ∆ABC
∴ `(PQ)/(AB) = (QR)/(BC) = (PR)/(AC)` ...[Corresponding sides of similar triangles]
∴ `3.6/(AB) = 4/(BC) = 4.2/(AC) = 3/4` ...[Given]
|
∴ `3.6/(AB) = 3/4` ∴ `AB = (3.6 xx 4)/3` ∴ AB = 1.2 × 4 ∴ AB = 4.8 cm |
`4/(BC) = 3/4` ∴ `BC = (4 xx 4)/3` ∴ `BC = 16/3` ∴ BC = 5.3 cm (approx) |
`4.2/(AC) = 3/4` ∴ `AC = (4.2 xx 4)/3` ∴ AC = 1.4 × 4 ∴ AC = 5.6 cm |

Steps of construction:
| ∆PQR | ∆ABC | |
| i. | Draw seg QR of 4 cm | Draw seg BC of 5.3 cm |
| ii. | Taking 3.6 cm and 4.2 cm distances on compass draw two arcs from Q and R respectively. | Taking 4.8 cm and 5.6 cm distance on compass draw two arcs from point B and C respectively. |
| iii. | Name the point of intersection as P. | Name the point of intersection as A. |

If the point P(6, 7) divides the segment joining A(8, 9) and B(1, 2) in some ratio, find that ratio.
Solution:
Point P divides segment AB in the ratio m : n.
A(8, 9) = (x1, y1), B(1, 2) = (x2, y2) and P(6, 7) = (x, y)
Using Section formula of internal division,
∴ `7 = (m(square) - n(9))/(m + n)`
∴ 7m + 7n = `square` + 9n
∴ 7m – `square` = 9n – `square`
∴ `square` = 2n
∴ `m/n = square`
