Question 3.
AB is a diameter of a circle of radius 5 cm. Let P and Q be two points on the circle so that the length of PB is 6 cm, and the length of AP is twice that of AQ. Then the length, in cm, of QB is nearest to
A
9.3
B
7.8
C
9.1
D
8.5
Question Explanation
Text ExplanationVideo Explanation
Since AB is a diameter, AQB and APB will right angles.
In right triangle APB, AP =
Now, 2AQ=AP => AQ= 8/2=4
In right triangle AQB, AP = =9.1 (Approx)
