Transcribed Image Text:**Geometry Problem:**
If \( LMNO \sim PQRS \), what is the measure of \( \overline{SP} \)?
**Diagrams:**
The image contains two quadrilaterals:
1. **Quadrilateral \( LMNO \):**
- Side \( \overline{LM} = 3 \)
- Side \( \overline{MO} = 2 \)
- Side \( \overline{ON} = 3 \)
- Side \( \overline{OL} = 5 \)
2. **Quadrilateral \( PQRS \):**
- Side \( \overline{PQ} = 15 \)
- Side \( \overline{QR} = 15 \)
- Side \( \overline{RS} = 15 \)
- Side \( \overline{SP} = ? \)
**Question:**
What is the length of \( \overline{SP} \)?
**Answer Choices:**
- A. 25
- B. 30
- C. 35
- D. 40
To solve this, use the property of similarity of polygons where corresponding side lengths are proportional.
