Anyone explain it?

Draw a Triangle and than apply hypotenuse theorem to half triangle.

x^2 = q^2-(p/4)^2.

2/3*x = Answer A.

CG = h/3.
h = √[g^2-(h/2)^2] = (√4g^2-h^2)/2.

The answer should be root over 4 q^2 - p^2/6.

In question base (q) and sides (p). Then answer is A.

Somesh said:   8 years ago
I think the position of p and q is interchanged in the option A. Otherwise it is correct.

Yes, you are right, @Somesh.
