Given below are some triangles and lengths of line segments. Identify ray PM is the bisector of ∠QPR.
In ΔQMP,`"QM"/"QP" = 3.6/9 = 2/5`
In ΔMRP,
`"MR"/"RP" = 4/10 = 2/5`
∴ `"QM"/"QP" = "MR"/"RP"`
By converse of angle bisector theorem, ray PM is the bisector of ∠QPR.
Solution:-
Given:
To prove: Ray PM is the bisector of ∠QPR.
Proof:
"QM"/"QP" = 3.6/9 = 2/5"
"MR"/"RP" = 4/10 = 2/5"
"QM"/"QP" = "MR"/"RP"
