Step 1:


\text{Triangle PQR is similar to triangle GHP}

Step 2:

Write the corresponding sides of the similar triangle


\begin{gathered} \\ PQ\text{ }\cong\text{ PG} \\ RP\text{ }\cong\text{ PH} \\ (PQ)/(PG)\text{ = }(RP)/(PH) \\ \\ (PQ)/(91)=(72)/(56)\text{ } \end{gathered}

Next

Cross multiply


\begin{gathered} 56PQ\text{ = 72 }*\text{ 91} \\ PQ\text{ = }(6552)/(56) \\ PQ\text{ = 117} \end{gathered}

Final answer

PQ ? = 117
