Answer to Problem 5PSA

The required sides are: 6 and 9 units.

Explanation of Solution

Given information

Two circles with centers O & P

  ΔAOB ΔRPS

OA = 2, AB = 3, PR = 6

Formula used

Ratios of corresponding sides are equivalent

Radii of circle are equal

Calculation

Given,

OA = OB = 2 units, radii of circle with center O

PS = PR = 6 units

AB = 3 units

Now,

  PSPR=OBOAPS=PR×OBOA=6×22=6 units

Now for RS, we have

  RSPR=ABOARS=PR×ABOA=6×32=9 units
