Question

given that R is between Q and T QT=9 RT=3 Find QR

Answer 1

Answer:

the value of QR is 6;

Given that R is between Q and T;

Then;

$QT=QR+RT$

Given;

$\begin{gathered} QT=9 \\ RT=3 \end{gathered}$

Substituting the given values;

$\begin{gathered} QT=QR+RT \\ 9=QR+3 \end{gathered}$

Subtracting 3 from both sides;

$\begin{gathered} 9-3=QR+3-3 \\ 6=QR \\ QR=6 \end{gathered}$

Therefore, the value of QR is 6;

$QR=6$
