Question

In a triangle ABC, PQ is the midpoint of AB and AC. PQ = 2cm, BC =3cm. The area of trapezium PQCB = 10cm^2.
If the area of triangle APQ = xcm^2. Calculate the value of x.

Answer 1

Sorry. If PQ joins the midpoints of AB and AC, then it is parallel to BC and half its length.

You cannot have PQ=2 and BC=3.
