a, Ta có \(\frac{AM}{AB}=\frac{8}{24}=\frac{1}{3}\)
\(\frac{AN}{AC}=\frac{10}{30}=\frac{1}{3}\)
⇒\(\frac{AM}{AB}=\frac{AN}{AC}\)
Xét ΔABC có
N ∈ AC (gt)
M ∈ AB (gt)
\(\frac{AM}{AB}=\frac{AN}{AC}\) (cmt)
⇒ MN // BC (định lí Ta-lét đảo)
⇒\(\frac{AM}{AB}=\frac{AN}{AC}=\frac{NM}{BC}\) (hệ quả định lí Ta-lét)
mà \(\frac{AM}{AB}=\frac{1}{3}\) (cmt)
⇒\(\frac{NM}{BC}=\frac{1}{3}\)
⇒\(\frac{NM}{36}=\frac{1}{3}\)
⇒\(NM=\frac{36}{3}=12\) (cm)
