Question

GEOMETRY HELP!
Given: segment AB is parallel to segment RS
If CR = 4, RA = 6, and RS = 10, find AB.

Answer 1

i think that should be BR not CR?

Answer 2

Where did CR come from?

Answer 3

sorry! here's the correct wording for the problem: If CR = 2, RA = 3, and BC = 10, find CS

Answer 4

where is point c???

Answer 5

It's a similar triangle problem. point C is at the bottom. I guess you'd have to see the actual picture. can I attach the picture on here?

Answer 6

thatll help

Answer 7

so CA = 10...first you need to know is AB is directly proportional to RS

try to get this:

4:10=10:x
100 = 4x
x = 25
AB = 25

Answer 8

Um, okay. I'm kind of lost. I see how you got AB = 25, but how does CA = 10? I thought BC = 10?

Answer 9

CR = 4 RA = 6
CA = 10

Answer 10

Oh, whoops. Okay, I'm with you now!

Answer 11

so whats the answer exactly
