Question

Given: triangle QRS~= triangle TUV,QS=3v+2and TV-7v-6, find the length of QS and TV

Answer 1

Hint* If they are congruent, they are equal

So the 2 sides they are comparing are congruent

\[\large 3v + 2 = 7v - 6\]

Just solve for 'v' and then plug that into both equations to find the length of each

Answer 2

Answer 3

Right so if V= 2

Length of QS = 3v + 2 = 3(2) + 2 = 6 + 2 = 8

And

Length of TV = 7v - 6 = 7(2) - 6 = 14 - 6 = 8

Makes sense because remember since the triangles are congruent, they will have the same side length
