Which proportionality statement is true?
QR/RP=QS/SP
QS/RS=PS/RS
RP/SP=RQ/SQ
QS/RS=RS/PS

I think this answer is D?

Answer 1

/ means division? or ratio?

Answer 2

It is D :)

Answer 3

Fractions

Answer 4

All Geometric means...

Answer 5

Lgba do you agree?

Answer 6

nope

Answer 7

think again @Calcmathlete :)

Answer 8

hint RS is the "lower leg" of triangle PSR and QS is the "lower leg" of triangle RSQ

Answer 9

PS is the shorter leg of triangle PSR and RS is the shorter leg of triangle RSQ

Answer 10

I still abide by my answer :) Don't see my error.
I learned it this way:

Answer 11

Are those both denominators, then?

Answer 12

PR is the hypotenuse of triangle PSR and RQ is the hypotenuse of RSQ

Answer 13

The point where the lines meet would be the geometric means and the two segments of the triangle are the extremes no?

Answer 14

guys I'm confused.

Answer 15

wait. yeah it's D. read the order of choices wrong

Answer 16

hahahah thanks :D
Thanks for looking at it and actually trying to help the possible error :)
