In the diagram, \(R\hat{P}Q = Q\hat{R}Y, \hspace{1mm} P\hat{Q}R = R\hat{Y}Q, \\ \hspace{1mm}|QP| = 3cm \hspace{1mm}|QY| = 4cm \hspace{1mm}and \hspace{1mm}|RY | = 5cm. \hspace{1mm} Find \hspace{1mm}|QR|\)
A.
2.0cm
B.
2.5cm
C.
6.4cm
D.
10.0cm
Correct answer is C
\(\frac{PR}{QR} = \frac{QR}{QY} = \frac{QP}{YR}\) (SSS Congruence)
\(\frac{QR}{4} = \frac{8}{5}\)
\(QR = \frac{4 \times 8}{5}\)
= 6.4 cm
