Pl answer seth is using the figure shown below to prove the pythagorean theorem using triangle similarity: in the given triangle pqr, angle p is 90° and segment ps is perpendicular to segment qr. the figure shows triangle pqr with right angle at p and segment ps. point s is on side qr. part a: identify a pair of similar triangles. (2 points) part b: explain how you know the triangles from part a are similar. (4 points) part c: if rs = 4 and rq = 16, find the length of segment rp. show your work. (4 points)

1.

ef : ab = 2 : 3

gf : cb = 2 : 3

gh : cd = 2 : 3

he : da = 2 : 3

2.

∠a ≅ ∠e

∠b ≅ ∠f

∠c ≅ ∠g

∠d ≅ ∠h

3.

use pythagorean theorem:

the length of the abcd trapezoid sides:

|ab| = 3 cm

|bc| = 10 cm

|cd| = 3(3) cm = 9 cm

|da| = 8 cm

the perimeter of abcd = 3 + 10 + 9 + 8 = 30 cm

the ratio of perimeters of the tarapezoids is equal 2 : 3.

substitute:

      cross multiply

      divide both sides by 3
