Given BRAIN ~ POWEQ Calculate the value of WE, BR, and EQ

A. WE = 5, BR = 11.25, EQ = 7
B. WE = 11.25, BR = 5, EQ = 7
C. WE = 5, BR = 7, EQ = 11.25
D. WE = 7, BR = 11.25, EQ = 5

I'm not looking for the answer, I'm looking for a guided answer. Thank you :)

Answer 1

As a guide, I would start with BN = 10 and PQ = 4. That's a 10/4 ratio or 5/2. You can utilize this ratio to set up proportions for all the other sides and solve for the variable in each proportion.

Answer 2

Thank you! I appreciate it :)
