Question : If $\frac{a^2}{b+c}=\frac{b^2}{c+a}=\frac{c^2}{a+b}=1$, then $\frac{1}{1+a}+\frac{1}{1+b}+\frac{1}{1+c}$ is:

Option 1: 1

Option 2: 2

Option 3: 3

Option 4: 4

Team Careers360 8th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 1


Solution : Given:
$\frac{a^2}{b+c}=\frac{b^2}{c+a}=\frac{c^2}{a+b}=1$
So, $a^2=b+c$, $b^2=c+a$ and $c^2=a+b$.
Now, $\frac{1}{1+a}+\frac{1}{1+b}+\frac{1}{1+c}$
Multiplying the numerator and denominator of the first, second and third term by $a$, $b$, and $c$, respectively.
= $\frac{a}{a+a^2}+\frac{b}{b+b^2}+\frac{c}{c+c^2}$
= $\frac{a}{a+b+c}+\frac{b}{b+c+a}+\frac{c}{c+a+b}$ (putting the values of $a^2$, $b^2$ and $c^2$)
= $\frac{a+b+c}{a+b+c}$
= 1
Hence, the

Question : If $\triangle$ABC ~ $\triangle$DEF such that 2AB = DE and BC = 8 cm, then the length of EF is:

Option 1: 16 cm

Option 2: 18 cm

Option 3: 22 cm

Option 4: 20 cm

Team Careers360 14th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 16 cm


Solution :
Given: △ABC∼△DEF, such that 2AB = DE and BC = 8 cm.
If two triangles are similar then their corresponding sides are proportional.
⇒ $\frac{\text{EF}}{\text{BC}}=\frac{\text{DE}}{\text{AB}}$
⇒ $\frac{\text{EF}}{8}=\frac{2\text{AB}}{\text{AB}}$
⇒ $\text{EF}=2×8$
⇒ $\text{EF}=16$ cm
Hence, the correct answer is 16 cm.
