Since two sides and one included angle is equal in △PQS and △PRS, we can conclude that they are congruent under the SAS congruence criterion.
Which means :
▪︎Angle S = Angle S
▪︎PS = PS
▪︎QS = RS
Given :
Measure of segment QS = 6n+3
Measure of segment RS = 4n+11
Thus :
Thus, the value of n = 4
Measure of segment QS :
Thus, measure of QS = 27
Measure of RS :
Measure of QR :
Thus :
▪︎QS = 27
▪︎RS = 27
▪︎QR = 54
Therefore, the correct options are :
▪︎(C) SR = 27
▪︎(D) QR = 54
