    In the given figure, if \[PQ\left\| BC \right.\]. Find AQ.  

    A) \[\text{3}.\text{5 cm}\]

    B) \[4.\text{5 cm}\]

    C) \[\text{9 cm}\]

    D) \[\text{9}\text{.5 cm}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    [b] In \[\Delta ABC,\] we have
    \[PQ||BC\]
    \[\Rightarrow \,\,\,\,\,\frac{AQ}{QC}=\frac{AP}{PB}\] (By Thales theorem)
    \[\Rightarrow \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\frac{AQ}{3}=\frac{3}{2}\,\,\,\,\,\,\Rightarrow \,\,\,AQ=\frac{9}{2}=4.5\,cm\]
