Im having trouble understanding a word problem for geometry could someone help me please?

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

Where is the actual problem?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Provide the ordered pairs for two congruent triangles on the coordinate plane. Explain, using complete sentences, how you know these triangles are congruent. Provide the ordered pairs for two similar triangles on the coordinate plane. Explain, using complete sentences, how you know these triangles are similar. Provide the ordered pairs for two triangles that have no relationship on the coordinate plane. Explain, using complete sentences, how you know these triangles have no relationship. The designers of a skateboard park are building a ramp and need a scaled-down model of one of their ramps. The side view of the actual ramp, labeled JKL, and the side view of the model, labeled PQR, is shown below. What would be the coordinates of a new point R that will make the model version of the ramp similar to the actual ramp? Explain your reasoning using complete sentences.

I saw the exact same problem two days ago. Everyone attends virtual school.

hmmm

what exactly are you asking?

OpenStudy (whpalmer4):

You have similar triangles, so you should be able to find PR by proportion. Then you can use that length and the one known point to find the other point R.
