Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
ΔMLN and ΔQPN are similar triangles thus the ratios of corresponding sides are equal.
= , that is
= ( cross- multiply )
8MN = 54 ( divide both sides by 8 )
MN = = 6 → D
hope you can see it
the law of cosine is
c2 =a2+b2-2abcos(c)
One way to check is 102 ÷ 6 = 17 is 100 ÷ 5 = 20.
