Answer 1

THEOREM:

• Basic proportionality theorem:— If a line is drawn parallel to one side of a triangle intersecting the other two sides in distinct points, then the other two sides are divided in the same ratio.

ANSWER:

By BPT theorem,

• x + 6/x = 8/5
• 5(x + 6) = 8x
• 5x + 30 = 8x
• 8x – 5x = 30
• 3x = 30
• x = 10

So, OP = OK + KP

• x + 6
• OP = 16 units.
