The triangles shown are similar. Which side of triangle PQR corresponds to side LN in triangle MNL? Triangle L N P. Side L N is
Lerok [7]

Answer:

LN corresponds to RQ

Step-by-step explanation:

If we look at the diagram we find that LN corresponds to RQ, MN corresponds to QP and ML corresponds to PR .

The both triangles are similar as PQR is 2 times of MNL .

Therefore

PQR= 2MNL

PR= 2ML

28= 2(14)

QP= 2MN

20 = 2(10)

RQ =2 LN

24= 2(12)

The perimeter of a triangle is 28 feet. One side of the triangle is 5 feet longer than the second side. The third side is 8 feet
Hitman42 [59]

side one is 5 side two is 10 and the third side is 13. 28 is not divisible by three so if one side i 5 ft longer and another side is 8 ft longer then you add them 5+8=13 then subtract 13 from the perimeter 28-13=15 then divide 15 by 3 and get 5 5 5. add 5 (5+5) (5+8).

Lines p and q are perpendicular. Line p is described by the equation 2x-5y=8. Line q passes through the point (-6,2) Which equat
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2x-5y=8. y = 2/5x-8/5

Line q: (-6,2). Slope -5/2

y-2 = -5/2(x- - 6). y-2 = -5/2(x+6)

y-2 = - 5/2x - 6

y = -5/2x -6 +2

y = - 5/2x - 4
