Question

Quadrilateral MBPV is similar to quadrilateral GKDF. BP = 78 mm, KD = 30 mm , and FD = 45 mm. What is VP? Enter your answer in the box □mm.

Answer 1

Answer:

  VP = 117 mm

Step-by-step explanation:

Corresponding sides of similar quadrilaterals are proportional.

  VP/FD = BP/KD

  VP = FD·BP/KD = (45 mm)·(78/30) . . . . multiply by FD; fill in the givens

  VP = 117 mm
