Answer:

Explanation:

The 2 quadrilaterals are similar so corresponding sides are in the same ratio.

So IF/MN = 16/12 = 4/3.

HI / PN = 4/3

36 / PN = 4/3

PN = (3*36)/4

= 27.

Answer:

PN = 48

Explanation:

The shapes shown in the image are similar so we can find the length of PN using the similarity ratio with the given values:

IF/NM = HI/PN

  • Rewrite the equation with given values.

16/12 = 36/PN

  • Cross multiply fractions.

12PN = 576

  • Divide both sides with 12.

PN = 48
