State whether the following quadrilaterals are similar or not:
Solution and Explanation
Quadrilateral PQRS and ABCD are not similar as their corresponding sides are proportional, i.e. 1:2, but their corresponding angles are not equal.
Top Questions on Triangles
In the adjoining figure, \(PQ \parallel XY \parallel BC\), \(AP=2\ \text{cm}, PX=1.5\ \text{cm}, BX=4\ \text{cm}\). If \(QY=0.75\ \text{cm}\), then \(AQ+CY =\)
- Assertion (A) : \(\triangle ABC \sim \triangle PQR\) such that \(\angle A = 65^\circ\), \(\angle C = 60^\circ\). Hence \(\angle Q = 55^\circ\).
Reason (R) : Sum of all angles of a triangle is \(180^\circ\). - If the orthocentre of the triangle formed by the lines $ y = x + 1 $, $ y = 4x - 8 $, and $ y = mx + c $ is at $ (3, -1) $, then $ m - c $ is:
In the adjoining figure, \( \triangle CAB \) is a right triangle, right angled at A and \( AD \perp BC \). Prove that \( \triangle ADB \sim \triangle CDA \). Further, if \( BC = 10 \text{ cm} \) and \( CD = 2 \text{ cm} \), find the length of } \( AD \).
If a line drawn parallel to one side of a triangle intersecting the other two sides in distinct points divides the two sides in the same ratio, then it is parallel to the third side. State and prove the converse of the above statement.
