△LMN\triangle LMN has points PP on LMLM and QQ on LNLN such that PQ∥MNPQ \parallel MN. The ratio LP:PMLP:PM is 3:53:5. a. (i) Determine LQ:QNLQ:QN. b. (ii) If the perimeter of △LMN\triangle LMN is 72 cm72\,\text{cm} and MN=18 cmMN = 18\,\text{cm}, calculate the perimeter of △LPQ\triangle LPQ. c. (iii) Find the ratio of the areas [△LPQ]:[△LMN][\triangle LPQ]:[\triangle LMN].
