Joshua used two wood beams, PC and QA, to support the roof of a model house. The beams intersect each other to form two similar
triangles QRP and ARC as shown in the figure below. The length of segment PR is 3.4 inches and the length of segment CR is 5.1 inches. The distance between A and C is 4.2 inches What is the distance between the endpoints of the beams P and Q?
Answer choices
2.02 inches
2.5 inches
2.8 inches
3.4 inches
So the width is 65, so two sides are each 65m long. So multiply 65*2 which is 130. this means that the other two sides need to equal 130 when added, so divide 130/2 which is 65
