In the diagram, \SQ\ = 4cm, \PT\ = 7cm. /TR/ = 5cm and ST//OR. If /SP/ = xcm, find the value of x
5.6
6.5
6.6
6.8
Correct answer is A
\(\frac{/PS/}{/PQ/} = \frac{/PT/}{/PR/}\)
\(\frac{x}{4 + x} = \frac{7}{7 + 5}\)
\(\frac{x}{4 + x} = \frac{7}{12}\)
(2x = 7)(4 + x); 12x = 28 + 7x
12x - 7x = 28
5x = 28
x = \(\frac{28}{5}\)
x = 5.6

In the diagram, IG is parallel to JE, JEF = 120o and FHG = 130o, fins the angle marked t
40o
70o
80o
100o
Correct answer is B
Now, t + 60o + 50o = 180o
t = 180o - 110o
t = 70o
