OpenStudy (alexandervonhumboldt2):

PQ/16=15/12 solve for PQ

OpenStudy (jravenv):

I dont understand why thats the answer though. can you help explain? @AlexandervonHumboldt2

OpenStudy (alexandervonhumboldt2):

the figures are similar. Thus sides are proportional. We make a proportion: PQ/JK=15/12 PQ/16=15/12 now solve for PQ

OpenStudy (alexandervonhumboldt2):

PQ/KJ=SR/ML
