Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Radii PO and RO will be called r
Pythagorean theorem
r² = PX² + OX²
r² = RY² + OY²
PX² + OX² = RY² + OY²
PX² - RY² = OY² - OX²
similar triangles based on diameters rather than radii
(2PX)² - (2RY)² = (2OY)² - (2OX)²
PQ² - RS² = 4OY² - 4OX²
Going by the picture provided rather than your posted question which is missing a couple of squaring exponents on the right hand terms.

Answer:
One side has length 5x
One side has length 12x
One side has length 13x
Step-by-step explanation:
5x + 12x + 13x = 15
x = 15/(5 + 12 + 13) = 15/30 = 0.5
5(0.5) = 2.5
12(0.5) = 6
13(0.5) = 6.5
The answer is: " 250 % " .
