The two rectangles above are similar. If a = 5 in, b = 8 in, and d = 16 in, what is the length of c? A.
15 in
B.
12 in
C.
10 in
D.
6 in
R

the car was traveling 40 mph before it started skidding. ( 2 points ) 17. was the driver were her brakes working at 75% efficiency or better? ( 2 points ) yes 29.

step-by-step explanation:

place r′ so that qr′ is parallel to the tangent.

now we get that ∠r′py=∠pr′q, where y is on the tangent, on the opposite side of p from x.

also, because of the symmetry, ∠r′py=∠qpx.

finally, note that no matter where we place r, as long as it's on the correct arc, we have ∠prq=∠pr′q.

stringing all these equalities together, we end up with ∠prq=∠qpx.

this picture will show how its going to look like.
