A geometry problem by A Former Brilliant Member

Geometry Level 2

A parallelogram A B C D ABCD is intersected by a line m . m. From each of the four vertices A , B , C , A, B, C, and D D we draw a perpendicular to m . m. The four feet are P , Q , R , P, Q, R, and S , S, respectively. Point S S is also the intersection of line m and A B . AB. The lengths of line segments A P , B Q , AP, BQ, and D S DS are 6 , 7 , 6, 7, and 25 , 25, respectively.

What is the length of C R CR ?

Challenge :Can you do this within 15-20 secs?! Give it a try!!


The answer is 12.

A bit visualization and you can figure out that, 25 6 = C R + 7 C R = 12 25 - 6 = CR + 7 \Rightarrow CR = \boxed{12}

See, its way more easier than it looks!! ↖(^ω^)↗
