The sides of a right triangle are 3 4 5
A point is taken on the hypotenuse at a distance of 2 cm from the vertex adjacent to the 4 side. Find the distance from this point to the vertex of the right triangle.

Let's say MN intersect AX at O ,
MO = 1/2 BX
∆AMO and ∆ABX are similar triangles so
Area∆ AMO/ Area∆ABX = MO²/BX² = 1/4
So if Area of ∆AMO = x ,then Area ABX = 4x and Area MOXB = 4x - x = 3x ( shaded area )
Area of ∆ABC = 2 × Area ∆ABX = 8x
Hence required ratio = 3x/ 8x = 3 : 8

Hi Nancy
Please see if the question is complete.
I thing there is a typographical error , the length of RT ( 6cm ) is already mentioned in the question .

Two medians PS and RT of ∆PQR intersect at G at right angles. If PS =9CM and RT =6 cm,then length of RS is
a) 10
B) 6
C)5
D)3

Centroid divides the medians in 2 : 1 .
So PG : GS = 2 : 1
GS = 3 cm , PG = 6 cm
Again RG : GT = 2 : 1
GT = 2cm , RG = 4 cm
∆GSR is a right angled ∆ .
So , RS² = RG² + GS²
RS ² = 3² + 4²
RS = √25 = 5 .

ABCD is a parallelogram, AC and BD are diagonals intersecting at O. X and Y are centroids of ∆ADC and ∆ABC respectively. If BY=6 then OX=?
A)2
B)3
C)4
D)6

Since centroid divides the median in 2 : 1 ,
BO : OY = 2 : 1
OY = 6/2 = 3.
OY = OX = 3.
Option (B)

Hi Sir, can you help me with this question? P.S- I was not able to post it in "Circles" section, so posting it here.

Hello Richa ,
Here , OC = Altitude on AB = Sum of diameters of the circles + radius of the largest circle
OC = 9 + 6 + 2 + 2/3 +..... = 9 + ( 6)/ ( 1-1/3) = 18
Area of the Triangle ABC = 1/2 x OC x AB
1/2 x 18 x 18 = 162 sq units .

Hello Richa ,
In triangles ADC and BDE
Angle A = Angle B
Angle D = Angle D (Each 90)
Hence , triangle ADC similar triangle BDE
AD/CD = BD/ED
8/4 = 6/ ED
ED = 3 units .

Hey Sir, posting a question below. Please help with the solution.
In a triangle ABC, BC =24, AC=18 and the medians to side BC and AC are perpendicular. Find AB.

Sir please explain this solution
TG Team 08/08/2018 3:39 pm
Sides: a, a and 1
Two cases:
(i) a is an even integer , sum of two even integer and 1 is always odd
(ii) a is an odd integer ,
odd integer + odd integer + 1 = an odd integer
so Option C is false .
Using Pythagoras Theorem : Altitude of the triangle = sqrt {a^2 - (1/2)^2} =
Area = 1/2 x Base x Altitude
=> sqrt{4a^2 -1}/4
4a^2 is a perfect square, so sqrt{4a^2 -1} is irrational
So area is always an irrational Number .

Triangle CAD ~ Triangle ABD
CD/AD = AD/BD
AD² = CD × BD
16 = CD × 6
CD = 16/6
BC = 8/3 + 6 = 26/3
