i think you mean AB/RQ right?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

the question is oddly worded

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@jim_thompson5910 yes sorry about that is suppose to have the / between the letters

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

ok so you need to match up the corresponding parts of the triangles

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

AB corresponds to RQ, so that's why we have AB/RQ PB corresponds to PQ, so we also have PB/PQ put together, we know that AB/RQ = PB/PQ

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

this is not the answer, but it helps you getting in the right direction

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the answer is A? @jim_thompson5910

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

no, notice how it's in the wrong order

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Im sorry but PA is corresponding to PR? or am i making a mistake @jim_thompson5910

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

good

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Alright thank you @jim_thompson5910
