Question

Point q on the line segment PR. given PR=12 and PQ=10, determine the length of QR

Answer 1

Answer: 2

Work Shown:

PQ + QR = PR

10 + QR = 12

QR = 12-10

QR = 2

Answer 2

length of QR = 2

Explanation:

Given that point Q is on the line segment PR, and that PQ=10 and PR=12,

We can use the following equation to determine the length of QR:

`\sf QR = PR - PQ`

• QR is the length of the segment QR
• PR is the length of the segment PR
• PQ is the length of the segment PQ

Substituting the given values into the equation, we get:

`\sf QR = 12 - 10`

`\sf QR = 2`

Therefore, the length of the segment QR is 2.
