In ∆MNP, NQ is a bisector of ∠N. If MN = 5, PN = 7 MQ = 2.5 then Find QP.

In D MNP, NQ is a bisector of Ð N. If MN = 5, PN = 7 MQ = 2.5 then find QP .
Solution

\[\text{ In } \bigtriangleup PNM, \]
\[\frac{QM}{QP} = \frac{MN}{PN} \left( \text{ By angle bisector theorem } \right)\]
\[ \Rightarrow \frac{2 . 5}{QP} = \frac{5}{7}\] 

\[\Rightarrow QP = \frac{2 . 5 \times 7}{5}\]
\[ = 3 . 5\]  

Hence, the measure of QP is 3.5.

Solution:-

In triangle MNP, NQ is a bisector of ∠N.

Using the angle bisector theorem:

  • QM/QP = MN/PN

Substituting given values:

  • 2.5/QP = 5/7

Solving for QP:

  • QP = (2.5 x 7)/5 = 3.5

Therefore, the length of QP is 3.5.
