Can anyone please help me? Seth is using the figure shown below to prove the Pythagorean Theorem using triangle similarity:

In the given triangle PQR, angle P is 90° and segment PS is perpendicular to segment QR.

The figure shows triangle PQR with right angle at P and segment PS. Point S is on side QR.

Part A: Identify a pair of similar triangles. (2 points)

Part B: Explain how you know the triangles from Part A are similar. (4 points)

Part C: If RS = 4 and RQ = 16, find the length of segment RP. Show your work. (4 points)

Step-by-step explanation:

A) QSP  and RSP are simular

B) Because the line PS is at a right angle to  QR.. angle S for each triangle is the same.. and since  the angle for P for each triangle is also the same so... angle Q and R have to be the same ... so they are the same/ similar triangles

C)  .. they have to have the same proportions as each other sooo..

so one triangle is 3x the size of the other..  but.. for some odd reason they are not asking about the bigger triangle..so we don't need to know that RQ=16... they want to know the hypotenuse of the given triangle with 4 on one of the legs.. soooo = 5.6568....

could you reply to this with the question so i can ?

the answer is a
