Summary

TLDRThe video explains how to calculate the distance from point M, the midpoint of BC, to line EG in a cube with an edge length of 8. The solution involves constructing triangle EMG, where EG is the diagonal of the face, and using Pythagoras’ theorem to find lengths of EM and MG. After calculating these lengths, the cosine rule is applied to find the angle at E, followed by the sine rule to determine the final distance. The answer is 6√2 cm, corresponding to option B.

Takeaways

📏 The problem involves a cube ABCD EFGH with edge length 8, and M is the midpoint of BC.
📐 The goal is to find the distance from M to EG by forming triangle EMG.
📊 EG is a diagonal of the face, calculated as 8√2.
📈 First, the length of GM is calculated as √(8² + 4²), resulting in 4√5.
🧮 To find EM, AM is calculated as √(8² + 4²), giving 4√5 as well.
📏 The length of EM is found to be 12 using the Pythagorean theorem.
🔢 Using the law of cosines to find angle E in triangle EMG.
📝 The cosine rule is applied, yielding cos E as 1/√2.
📐 The sine of angle E is then calculated using a right triangle, giving sin E as 1/√2.
🎯 Finally, the distance MM' (projection) is computed as 12/√2, which simplifies to 6√2 cm, corresponding to option B.
