Given: kpst is a trapezoid, kp=st, mn is a midsegment, mn=20, h=15, ps: kt=3: 7 find: ks and kp

Length of KS = 25 units

And

Length of KP = 17 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: KPST is a trapezoid, KP =ST, MN is a mid segment, h is the height =15

Also it is given that, MN = 20 , h = 15 and PS:KT = 3:7.

Since, the length of Mid-segment MN = 20.

Also, it is given: PS:KT = 3:7

Let  PS = 3x and KT = 7x respectively.

then;

On Simplify, we get;

5x =20

Divide both sides by 5 we get;

x =4

Then:

Length of base PS = 3x = 3(4) = 12 and Length of base KT = 7x = 7(4) = 28.

Now, In triangle PLK

Using Pythagoras theorem to find KP;

It is given here, PL =h =15 and KL= 8 {you can see in the figure as shown below};

Simplify:

KP = 17

therefore, the length KP = 17 units

To, construct a line: Join K and S

Now, in triangle KRS

KR = KL +LR = 8 +12 =20 and SR = h= 15

Using Pythagoras theorem in KRS to find KS;

On simplify:

KS = 25

Therefore, the length of KS is, 25 units.

the reason why your question keeps getting deleted because this is not a school related question : )

i will answer your question though.

i never tried church's
