Question
If AB = 5 cm, BP = 2 cm and AP = 3.4 cm, compare the segments.
✓
Answer
Given, l(AB) = 5 cm, l(BP) = 2 cm,
l(AP) = 3.4 cm … [Given]
r Since, 2 < 3.4 < 5
∴ l(BP) < l(AP) < l(AB)
i.e., seg BP < seg AP < seg AB
l(AP) = 3.4 cm … [Given]
r Since, 2 < 3.4 < 5
∴ l(BP) < l(AP) < l(AB)
i.e., seg BP < seg AP < seg AB
