Sketch the following to help answer the question. Kite QRST has a short diagonal of QS and a long diagonal of RT. The diagonals intersect at point P. Side QR = 10m and diagonal QS = 12m. Find the length of segment RP. A.6m B.8m C.10m D.12m

Respuesta :

QP = 1/2 * QS =  6m

QR^2 = QP^2 + RP^2   ( By Pythagoras theorem).

10^2 = 6^2 + RP^2

RP = sqrt (100 - 36))

= 8 m   answer

Answer:

8m
