In the diagram below of triangle MNO, P is the midpoint of MO and Q is the midpoint of NO. If PQ = 5x + 62, and MN = 6x-4, what is the measure of PQ?

29

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a triangle embedded in triangle MNO, which is triangle PQO, and these are similar triangles in that their corresponding sides are always in the same ratio, which in this case is 2:1, as MP = MO due to the midpoint definition, and therefore MO is twice as long as MP. Same for NO and QO.

Now that we know the ratio, we can set 6x-4 = 2(-5x+64)

6x-4 = -10x +108

16x = 112

x = 7

Plug x back in for PQ, -5(7)+64 = 29

65°

step-by-step explanation:

the total measure of a triangle is 180 degrees. 62 + 53 is 115.

180 - 115 = 65
