I can't work without Letters.

:P
I got y= 10.5
x & z=7.5
Directrix (directrix):
What proportions did you use?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
9/5=13.5/x
Directrix (directrix):
That would be P'F/PG = AP'/DP.
I totally don't get why that would be true.

Then I don't understand what to do.
Directrix (directrix):
With all respect, it seems that you eye-balled some segments you thought should go together and cranked out some values. We need the theorems to back us up. No eye-balling.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
alright
Directrix (directrix):
I think my hang-up is that I don't know how to interpret the P and then the P' in the same diagram. P' is the image of P but I don't know under what dialation factor. Not yet, anyway.
Directrix (directrix):
I think y = 11. Do you have any answers?

is there only one letter in your book that has the ' mark beside it. The only one I see is P and then P'
