(b) Given that QA mPA and QB nOB , express OQ in terms of (i) m, p and q (ii) n, p and q
2.
Hence, find the values of m and n. In the diagram, OPQR is a parallelogram. The midpoint of PQ is M and RM meets OQ at X. It is given that OP p , OR r ,
OX OQ and RX RM .
(a) Express OM in terms of p and r (b) Express OX in terms of (i) , p and r (ii) , p and r Hence, find the values of and . (c) Given that the area of triangle OXR is 24 cm2, find the area of the parallelogram OPQB. The diagram shows a triangle POQ. The point R lies on OP and the point T lies on PQ. The straight line QR intersects the straight line OT at point S. It is given that OR : RP 1: 2 , PQ : PT 2:1 , OP 9 x ,

OQ 8 y .
(a) Express, in terms of x and/or y , (i) QR (ii) OT
(b) Using OS hOT and QS kQR , where h and k are constants, find the value of h and of k. (c) Given that x 2 units, y 3 units and POQ 90 , find PQ .
