Suppose the medians $BD$ and $CE$ of a triangle $ABC$ intersect at a point $O$. If area of triangle $ABC$ is $108$ sq. cm., then, the area of the triangle $EOD$, in sq. cm., is

In a right-angled triangle $\triangle A B C$, the altitude $A B$ is $5 \mathrm{~cm}$, and the base $B C$ is $12 \mathrm{~cm}$. $P$ and $Q$ are two points on $B C$ such that the areas of $\triangle \mathrm{ABP}, \triangle \mathrm{ABQ}$ and $\triangle \mathrm{ABC}$ are in arithmetic progression. If the area of $\triangle \mathrm{ABC}$ is $1.5$ times the area of $\triangle \mathrm{ABP}$, the length of PQ in cm , is

A triangle $ABC$ has area $32$ sq units and its side $BC$ , of length $8$ units, lies on the line $\mathrm{x}=4$. Then the shortest possible distance between $A$ and the point $(0,0)$ is
