Parallelogram PARL is similar to parallelogram WXYZ. If AP= 15, PL=25, and WZ= 75, Find the value of c.

Answer 1

Since parallelogram PARL is similar to parallelogram WXYZ, we have the following ratios:

AP/WZ = PL/XY

Substituting the given values:

15/75 = 25/XY

Cross-multiplying:

15 * XY = 75 * 25

XY = (75 * 25) / 15

XY = 125

Therefore, the value of c is 125.
