Question: In ΔPQR and ΔMST, P = 55, Q =25, M = 100 and S = 25. Is ΔQPR ~ ΔTSM? Why? Solution: FalseWe know that, the sum of three angles of a triangle is 180. In ΔPQR, P + Q + R = 180 ⇒ 55 + 25 + R = 180 ⇒ R = 180 (55 + 25)= 180 80 =100 In ΔTSM, T + S + M = 180 ⇒ T + 25+ 100 = 180 ⇒ T = 180-(25 +100) =180-125= 55 In ΔPQR and A TSM, and P = T, Q = S, and R = M ΔPQR ~ ΔTSM [since, all corresponding angles are equal] Hence, Δ QPR is not similar to ΔTSM, since correct correspondence is P T, Q r S an...

Question: In figure, BD and CE intersect each other at the point P. Is ΔPBC ~ ΔPDE? Why? Solution: True $\angle B P C=\angle E P D$ [vertically opposite angles] Now, $\frac{P B}{P D}=\frac{5}{10}=\frac{1}{2}$ $\ldots($ i) and $\frac{P C}{P E}=\frac{6}{12}=\frac{1}{2}$ ...(ii) From Eqs. (i) and (ii), $\frac{P B}{P D}=\frac{P C}{P E}$ Since, one angle of ΔPBC is equal to one angle of ΔPDE and the sides including these angles are proportional, so both triangles are similar. Hence, ΔPBC ΔPDE, by SAS...
