△CDE~ △PQR. CD = 9 m, EC = 15 m, PQ = 15 m. What is the length of RP‾‾‾‾‾?
Since ∆CDE and ∆PQR are similar, we can set up a proportion to find the length of RP:
CD / PQ = DE / QR
Substituting the given values:
9 / 15 = 15 / QR
Cross multiplying:
9 * QR = 15 * 15
QR = (15 * 15) / 9
QR = 25
Therefore, the length of RP is 25 meters.
