ABC is a triangle through vertex A a line RQ is drawn parallel to side BC similarly PR and QP are the lines drawn through the vertex B and C parallel to AC and AB respectively to foam another triangle PQR. find the ratio of perimeter of Triangle ABC to that of triangle pqr |

Answer» CLEARLY, ABCQ and ARBC are parallelograms. ∴BC=AQ and BC=AR ⇒AQ=AR ⇒A is the mid-point of QR. Similarly, B and C are the mid-points of PR and PQ respectively. ∴AB=½ PQ,BC= ½QR and CA½ PR ⇒PQ=2AB,QR=2BC and PR=2CA ⇒PQ+QR+RP=2(AB+BC+CA) ⇒ PERIMETER of ΔPQR=2 (Perimeter of ΔABC)
