Question

From given information, is PQ || BC?

AP = 2, PB = 4, AQ = 3, QC = 6

Answer 1

`"AP"/"PB" = 2/4 = 1/2`    .....(i)[Given]

`"AQ"/"QC" = 3/6 = 1/2`   .....(ii)

In ΔABC,

`"AP"/"PB" = "AQ"/"QC" = 1/2`   ......[From (i) and (ii)]

∴ Line PQ || side BC  .......[Converse of basic proportionality theorem]
