8 multiple choice 1 point
in the figure, $ \overline { n q } $ is parallel to $ \overline { o p } $ and $ n q = 4 , o p = 6 $, and $ m q = 8 $. if $ n o = 2 $,
how long is $ \overline { q p } $ ?

Question

Accepted Answer

# Explanation:
## Step1: Apply Pythagorean theorem
In a right - triangle $PQ^2+15^2 = 17^2$.
## Step2: Solve for $PQ$
$$
\begin{align*}
PQ^2&=17^2 - 15^2\
PQ^2&=(17 + 15)(17 - 15)\
PQ^2&=(32)\times(2)\
PQ^2&=64\
PQ&=\sqrt{64}\
PQ& = 8
\end{align*}
$$
