Question

In a trapezium PQRS, PQ || SR, PQSR X and Y are the midpoints of
SP and QR respectively If XY = 7 5 and PQ = 12, then find RS

Here is the answer for your question:

Consider the following figure

Given PQ|| SR,

Where PQ = 12units, XR = 7 5units, SR= ?

Using the formula:

XY = (PQ+SR)/2

7 5 = (12+SR)/2

SR = 3 units

In a trapezium PQRS, PQ || SR, PQSR. X and Y are the midpoints of SP and QR respectively. If XY = 7.5 and PQ = 12, then find RS.
