Question

in the diagram, △pmn≅△qsr. if qr = 20 in., rs = 7 in., and sq = 24 in., what is pn? figure may not be drawn to scale.

Explanation:

Step1: Identify congruent triangles

△PMN ≅ △QSR, so corresponding sides equal.

Step2: Determine corresponding sides

P↔Q, M↔S, N↔R. Thus PN↔QR.

Step3: Find PN length

QR=20in, so PN=QR=20in.

Answer:

20in
