In the figure given PM=10cm,MN=15 cm and PN=17 cm Also QM=QX=RN. Perimeter of the ΔPQR is
Since triangles QMX and RNX are both isosceles, we have QX=QM and XR=RN. So the perimeter=PQ+QX+XR+RP=(PQ+QM)+(PR+RN)=PM+PN=10+17=27
M and N are points on the sides PQ and PR respectively of a ΔPQR. For each of the following cases, whether MN || QR: (i) PM = 4 cm, QM = 4.5 cm, PN = 4 cm, NR = 4.5 cm (ii) PQ =1.28 cm, PR = 2.56 cm, PM = 0.16 cm, PN = 0.32 cm
