प्रश्न
In the given figure, given that ∆ABC ∼ ∆PQR and quad ABCD ∼ quad PQRS. Determine the value of x, y, z in each case.
उत्तर
(i) We have, `Δ ABC ∼ Δ PQR `
So the ratio of the sides of the triangles will be proportional to each other.
`(AB)/(PQ)=(BC)/(QR)=(AC)/(PR)`
Therefore put the values of the known terms in the above equation to get,
`12/9=7/x=10/y`
On solving these simultaneous equations, we get
`x= 21/4`
`y = 30/4`

Nazima is fly fishing in a stream. The tip of her fishing rod is 1.8 m above the surface of the water and the fly at the end of the string rests on the water 3.6 m away and 2.4 m from a point directly under the tip of the road. Assuming that her string (from the tip of her road to the fly) is taut, how much string does she have out (in the given figure)? If she pulls the string at the rate of 5 cm per second, what will the horizontal distance of the fly from her after 12 seconds.
