Question

Triangle ABC is similar to triangle PQR, as shown below: what ratio is equal to p:a pls help

Answer 1

Answer:

$r:c$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional and its corresponding angles are congruent

so

$\frac{RQ}{CB}=\frac{RP}{CA}=\frac{PQ}{AB}$

substitute the given values

$\frac{p}{a}=\frac{q}{b}=\frac{r}{c}$

therefore

$\frac{p}{a}=\frac{r}{c}$

$p:a=r:c$
