Q5 of 168 Page 4

In Fig. 4.35, state if .

DP/PE=3.9/3=1.3/1=13/10


DQ/QF=3.6/2.4=36/24=3/2


DP/PE≠DQ/QF


So PQ is not parallel to EF

M and N are points on the sides PQ and PR respectively of a . For each of the following cases, state whether :

(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
