Sorry, but data not adequate. However, I'll try. Suppose the triangle is right angled at R. Then PQ = hypotenuse = 8. Further, if the triangle is isosceles, then RQ = 4 times sqrt(2).

How do you make r the subject of the formula m equals pqr over s?

m = pqr/s Multiply both sides by s: ms = pqr Divide both sides by pq: ms/pq = r


How do you prove rhs congruence?

Here is the answer to your query. Consider two ∆ABC and ∆PQR. In these two triangles ∠B = ∠Q = 90�, AB = PQ and AC = PR. We can prove the R.H.S congruence rule i.e. to prove ∆ABC ≅ ∆PQR We need the help of SSS congruence rule. We have AB = PQ, and AC = PR So, to prove ∆ABC ≅ ∆PQR in SSS congruence rule we just need to show BC = QR Now, using Pythagoras theorems in ∆ABC and ∆PQR Now, in ∆ABC and ∆PQR AB = PQ, BC = QR, AC = PR ∴ ∆ABC ≅ ∆PQR [Using SSS congruence rule] So, we have AB = PQ, AC = PR, ∠B = ∠Q = 90� and we have proved ∆ABC ≅ ∆PQR. This is proof of R.H.S. congruence rule. Hope! This will help you. Cheers!!!


The perimeters of two similar triangles abc and pqr are 36 cm and 24 cm respectively if pq equals 10 cm find ab?

Since 36=24+1/2.24 and abc and pqr are similar, ab= 10+1/2.10=15.


Find the ratio of area of the triangles ABC and PQR such that AB = BC=CA = 6m each and PQ, QR, RP are half of the sides AB BC and CA respectively?

Since the sides of triangle are equal, the triangles are equilateral. Just for your information, in this question, we do not require the length of sides. It is just additional information. :) The area of equilateral triangle is: (√3)/4 × a², where a is the side of the equilateral triangle. For triangle ABC, area will be = (√3)/4 × a² (Let 'a' is the side of triangle ABC) Since, side of triangle PQR is half that of ABC, it will be = a/2 Therefore, area of triangle PQR = (√3)/4 × (a/2)² = (√3)/16 × a² Take the ratio of areas of triangle ABC and PQR: [(√3)/4 × a²] / [(√3)/16 × a²] = 4:1


Triangle pqr is an isosceles triangle in which pq equals pr equals 5cm it is circumscribed about a circle prove that qr is bisected at point of contact?

Suppose the circle meets QR at A, RP at B and PQ at C. PQ = PR (given) so PC + CQ = PB + BR. But PC and PB are tangents to the circle from point P, so PC = PB. Therefore CQ = BR Now CQ and AQ are tangents to the circle from point Q, so CQ = AQ and BR and AR are tangents to the circle from point R, so BR = AR Therefore AQ = AR, that is, A is the midpoint of QR.
