Answer:
B. 8m
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
The figure is a kite having points QRST.
It has short diagonal QS.
Long diagonal RT
Diagonal Intersect at point P.
side QR = 10m
Diagonal QS = 12m
We need to find the length of segment RP.
According Diagonal Property of kite.
It states that Diagonals of Kite perpendicularly bisects each other.
QP = PS
RP = PT
But QS = QP + PS
QS = QP + QP
QS = 2 QP
QP = QS =
Now In Δ QPR
m∠ P = 90° (Diagonals of a kite is perpendicular to each other)
Now by Pythagoras theorem;
Hence the Length of segment RP is 8m.
