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 |
