Correct Answer: 3 cm
Solution : Given: PQ = 3 cm The line joining the mid-points of two sides of a triangle is parallel to the third side and half of the third side. So from $\triangle$ABC, we get FE = $\frac{1}{2}×$BC --(1) and from $\triangle$OBC, we get PQ = $\frac{1}{2}×$BC --(2) From equation 1 and 2, we get FE = PQ = 3 cm Hence, the correct answer is 3 cm.

Question : Three medians AD, BE, and CF of $\triangle ABC$ intersect at G. The area of $\triangle ABC$ is $36\text{ cm}^2$. Then the area of $\triangle CGE$ is:
Question : In a $\triangle ABC$, AD, BE and CF are the medians from vertices A, B, and C, respectively. The point of intersection of AD, BE and CF is called
Question : $\triangle ABC$ is a triangle. PQ is a line segment intersecting AB in P and AC in Q and PQ || BC. The ratio of AP : BP = 3 : 5 and the length of PQ is 18 cm. The length of BC is:
Question : In $\triangle$ABC the height CD intersects AB at D. The mid-points of AB and BC are P and Q, respectively. If AD = 8 cm and CD = 6 cm then the length of PQ is:
Question : In $\triangle ABC$, D and E are the midpoints of sides BC and AC, respectively. AD and BE intersect at G at the right angle. If AD = 18 cm and BE=12 cm, then the length of DC (in cm ) is:
