Answer from: tbras0424

Part A) Option A. QR= 3 cm

Part B) Option B. SV=6.5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the length of segment QR

we know that

If two triangles are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional and its corresponding angles are congruent

In this problem Triangle QRW and Triangle QSV are similar by AA Similarity Theorem

$\frac{QR}{QS}=\frac{QW}{QV}$

we have

$QS=9\ cm$ ---> because S is the midpoint QT (QS=TS)

$QW=2\ cm$ --->because V is the midpoint QU (QW+WV=VU)

$QV=6\ cm$ --->because V is the midpoint QU (QV=VU)

substitute the given values

$\frac{QR}{9}=\frac{2}{6}$

solve for QR

$QR=9(2)/6=3\ cm$

step 2

Find the length side SV

we know that

The Mid-segment Theorem states that the mid-segment connecting the midpoints of two sides of a triangle is parallel to the third side of the triangle, and the length of this mid-segment is half the length of the third side

In this problem

S is the mid-point side QT and V is the mid-point side QU

therefore

SV is parallel to TU

and

SV=(1/2)TU

$SV=(1/2)13=6.5\ cm$

Answer from: kat9940

19. A)3cm

20. B)6.5cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that S is the midpoint of QT and V the midpoint of QU, we can use the laws of enlargement to find the value of QR:

$QT=2QS=2ST\\\\QT=2\times 9=18\\\\\\$

Using ratios:

$WV:VU=4:6=RS:ST\\\\\frac{4}{6}=\frac{RS}{9}\\\\RS=\frac{9\times4}{6}=6$

The length of QR:

$QT=QR+RS+ST\\\\18=QR+6+9\\\\QR=3$

Hence, QR is 3cm

b. Again we use the laws of enlargement to find the value of SV :

$TQ:TS=TU:SV\\\\18:9=13:SV\\\\\frac{18}{9}=\frac{13}{SV}\\\\SV=6.5$

Hence, the length of SV is 6.5cm
