Answer:

PR = 2*36 = 72

SU = (1/2)54 = 27

RS = 36

Explanation:

By the Midpoint Theorem, the argent that connects midpoints of the sides of a triangle equals half the parallel side. That said,

  • PR is the full side that corresponds to midpoint segment TU. Therefore it's twice the distance of TU.
  • SU is the midpoint segment that corresponds to fill side PQ and therefore half the distance.
  • RS is half the the length of PR since S is the midpoint.
