Q. ParadigmSpecialising in O Level Mathematics5 In the diagram, ABC is a triangle where M is the midpoint of AC.The point P lies on the line BM such that BP=31BM.The point Q lies on the line BC such that BQ:QC=1:4.Given that AB=b and M0.(a) Express, as simply as possible, in terms of M1 and or M2,(i) M3,(ii) M4,(iii) M5,(iv) M6.(b) Write down two facts about M7 and Q.(c) Find the numeral value of M9,
Facts about A, P, Q: Two facts about A, P, and Q are: P lies on the line segment BM and Q lies on the line segment BC.
Area of Triangle ABP: Area of triangle ABP is 21× base × height. Since BP is 31 of BM and M is the midpoint of AC, the base of triangle ABP is 31 of AC. The height is the same for both triangles ABP and ×0.
Area of Triangle ABC: Area of triangle ABP=21×(31AC)×height=61×base(AC)×height.
Area of Quadrilateral CMPQ: Area of triangle ABC=21×base(AC)×height.
Ratio of Areas: Area of quadrilateral CMPQ = Area of triangle ABC - Area of triangle ABP.
Ratio of Areas: Area of quadrilateral CMPQ = Area of triangle ABC - Area of triangle ABP.AreaextofquadrilateralCMPQ=21×base(AC)×height−61×base(AC)×height=21×base(AC)×height−61×base(AC)×height=(21−61)×base(AC)×height.
Ratio of Areas: Area of quadrilateral CMPQ = Area of triangle ABC - Area of triangle ABP. Area of quadrilateral CMPQ = $\frac{\(1\)}{\(2\)} \times \text{base}(AC) \times \text{height} - \frac{\(1\)}{\(6\)} \times \text{base}(AC) \times \text{height} = \frac{\(1\)}{\(2\)} \times \text{base}(AC) \times \text{height} - \frac{\(1\)}{\(6\)} \times \text{base}(AC) \times \text{height} = \left(\frac{\(1\)}{\(2\)} - \frac{\(1\)}{\(6\)}\right) \times \text{base}(AC) \times \text{height}. Area of quadrilateral CMPQ = \left(\frac{\(3\)}{\(6\)} - \frac{\(1\)}{\(6\)}\right) \times \text{base}(AC) \times \text{height} = \frac{\(2\)}{\(6\)} \times \text{base}(AC) \times \text{height} = \frac{\(1\)}{\(3\)} \times \text{base}(AC) \times \text{height}.
Ratio of Areas: Area of quadrilateral CMPQ = Area of triangle ABC - Area of triangle ABP. Area of quadrilateral CMPQ = \(\frac{1}{2} \times \text{base}(AC) \times \text{height} - \frac{1}{6} \times \text{base}(AC) \times \text{height} = \frac{1}{2} \times \text{base}(AC) \times \text{height} - \frac{1}{6} \times \text{base}(AC) \times \text{height} = \left(\frac{1}{2} - \frac{1}{6}\right) \times \text{base}(AC) \times \text{height}\). Area of quadrilateral CMPQ = \(\left(\frac{3}{6} - \frac{1}{6}\right) \times \text{base}(AC) \times \text{height} = \frac{2}{6} \times \text{base}(AC) \times \text{height} = \frac{1}{3} \times \text{base}(AC) \times \text{height}\). Ratio of areas \(\left(\text{Area of triangle ABP}\right)/\left(\text{Area of quadrilateral CMPQ}\right) = \left(\frac{1}{6} \times \text{base}(AC) \times \text{height}\right) / \left(\frac{1}{3} \times \text{base}(AC) \times \text{height}\right)\).
