In the given figure, PQ || AB; CQ = 4.8 cm QB = 3.6 cm and AB = 6.3 cm. Find : If AP = x, then the value of AC in terms of x.
उत्तर
In ΔCPQ and ΔCAB,
∠PCQ = ∠ACB ...(Since PQ || AB, so the angles are corresponding angles)
∠C = ∠C ...(Common angle)
∴ ΔCPQ ∼ ΔCAB ...(AA criterion for similarity)
`=> (CP)/(AC) = (CQ)/(CB)`
`=> (CP)/(AC) = (4.8)/(8.4) = 4/7 `
So, if AC is 7 parts, and CP is 4 parts, then PA is 3 parts.
Given, AP = x
or 3 parts = x
`=>` 1 part = `x/3`
`=>` 7 parts = `(7x)/3`
Hence, AC = `(7x)/3`
