PLEASE HELPP...??(: Jeremiah uses bamboo rods to make the frame of a tailless kite. He ties three bamboo rods together to form a right triangle PQR. He then ties another rod from P that meets RQ at a right angle. Segment PS in the figure below represents this rod and it is 4 inches long. Which of the following could be the lengths of segments QS and SR? (picture below)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

POSSIBLE ANSWERS A QS = 6 inches, SR = 10 inches B QS = 4 inches, SR = 12 inches C QS = 2 inches, SR = 2 inches D QS = 2 inches, SR = 8 inches

OpenStudy (anonymous):

D. QS = 2 inches, SR = 8 inches Since QS * SR = PS^2 = 16 in^2
