Question

Look at the figure shown below:

Answer 1

? it just says look at the figure below!

Answer 2

Patricia is writing statements as shown to prove that if segment ST is parallel to segment RQ, then x = 35.


Statement Reason
1. Segment ST is parallel to segment QR Given
2. Angle QRT is congruent to angle STP Corresponding angles formed by parallel lines and their transversal are congruent
3. Angle SPT is congruent to angle QPR Reflexive property of angles
4. Triangle SPT is similar to triangle QPR Angle-Angle Similarity Postulate
5. 28:40 = Corresponding sides of similar triangles are in proportion

Which of the following can she use to complete statement 5?
x:15
x:(x + 15)
28:15
28:(x + 15)

Answer 3

i think its B but I'm not 100 percent sure

Answer 4

it might be d

Answer 15

@Rz172 Do u think it's B too?

Answer 16

you there?

Answer 17

To be sure, here is the result of similarity..
all corresponding sides are proportional!

\[\LARGE {\frac{ PS }{ PQ }=\frac{ PT }{ PR }=\frac{ ST }{ QR }\\ \frac{ 28 }{ 28+12 }=\color{DarkSlateBlue }{\frac{ x }{ x+15 }}\\\frac{ 28 }{ 40 }=\color{SlateBlue }{\frac{ x }{ x+15 }}}\]



**Sorry for late.
