Question

Sketch. Kite qrst has a short diagonal of qs and a ling diagonal of rt. The diagonals intersect at point p. Side qr=5 m and diagonal qs = 6m Find the length if segment rp

Answer 1

Answer
4m

Explanation
Δqrp is a right triangle. 
If ps = 6m then, qp = 3m. So we can find line pr using pythagoras theorem. 
rp = √(5²-3²) = √16 = 4m

The Δqrp≡Δqtp.
