To find : The value of x, y, z.
Answer to Problem 3MRE
The value of x , y, and z are 15, 6 and 9 respectively.
Explanation of Solution
Given information :
The given diagram is
Calculation :
The scale factor of the trapezoid is given by the ratio of their corresponding sides.
Here, AD and PS are corresponding sides and
Therefore, scale factor is
Now, multiply the scale factor with each of the corresponding sides of x , y and z.
Therefore,
Hence,
The value of x , y, and z are 15, 6 and 9 respectively.
