In △abc, cm is the median to ab and side bc is 12 cm long. there is a point p∈ cm and a line ap intersecting bc at point q. find the lengths of segments cq and bq , if p is the midpoint of cm

4 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Draw the line MD that is parallel to AQ. Consider triangles BMD and BAQ. These triangles are similar, because they have three pairs of congruent angles (angles BMD and BAQ are corresponding, angles BDM and BQA are corresponding and angle B is common). The coefficient of similarity is because point M is midpoint of AB. Then

Since then

Consider triangles CPQ and CMD. These triangles are similar, because they have three pairs of congruent angles (angles CPQ and CMD are corresponding, angles CQP and CDM are corresponding and angle C is common). The coefficient of similarity is because point P is midpoint of CM. Then

Since then

Hence you get

option 1 is correct.

step-by-step explanation:

y varies inversely with x and constant of variation is 4

the equation will be:

y = k/x

where k =4 so,

y = 4/x

if we put values of x of option 1 in the above equation and find values of y

y = 4/-2 => y =-2

y = 4/-1 => y = -4

y = 4/1 => y = 4

y = 4/2 => y =2

so, all the values of x and y are correct.

if we put values of x given in other options and find value of y we cannot find whole table satisfying the equation.

hence option 1 is correct.
