Answer :

Let OR = \(x\) units (i) ΔQOR ~ ΔPAR⇒ \(rac{PA}{AR}\) = \(rac{QO}{OR}\) ⇒ \(rac{6}{x+4}\) = \(rac{3}{x}\)⇒ \(rac{x}{x+4}\) = \(rac{3}{6}\) ⇒ \(rac{x}{x+4}\) = \(rac{1}{2}\)⇒ 2\(x\) = \(x\) + 4 ⇒ \(x\) = 4∴ Co-ordinates of R are (– 4, 0) (ii) Quadrilateral OAPQ is a trapezium. Area of trapezium OAPQ = \(rac{1}{2}\) (OQ + AP) x OA = \(rac{1}{2}\) (3+6) x 4 = \(rac{1}{2}\) x 9 x 4 = 18 sq. units.
