Answer:
PQ = 6.8
Step-by-step explanation:
Corresponding sides of similar shapes or figures are proportional to each other. Since ∆LMN ~ ∆OPQ, the ratio of their corresponding sides would therefore be equal. Thus:
LN/OQ = MN/PQ
LN = 5
OQ = 17
MN = 2
PQ = ?
Plug in the values
5/17 = 2/PQ
Cross multiply
5*PQ = 2*17
5*PQ = 34
PQ = 34/5
PQ = 6.8
