Answer to Problem 23RP

Value of RS is 14 .

Explanation of Solution

Given information: Here, it is given that perimeter of PRST is 10 times more than 5(RS) and PR=26 . From the figure, we can conclude that RS=PT and PR=ST .

Formula used: Here, we are using the formula of perimeter of quadrilateral.

Perimeter of quadrilateral = Sum of all sides.

Calculation: As, it given that perimeter of PRST is 10 times more than 5(RS) .

   Perimeter = 10+5(RS)

Perimeter of a quadrilateral is sum of its all sides.

So, Perimeter = PR+RS+ST+PT

  10+5(RS)=PR+RS+ST+PT

Now, as it is given that RS=PT and PR=ST ,

  10+5(RS)=PR+RS+PR+RS

  10+5(RS)=2(PR)+2(RS)

Put value of PR=26 ,

  10 + 5(RS) = 2(26) + 2(RS)10 + 5(RS) = 52 + 2(RS)5(RS)2(RS)=52103(RS) = 42RS=423RS= 14
