Answer: Good question. I was wondering myself and I just did the math. The answer is letter D, 20.

Step-by-step explanation: (RT)(RS)=(QT)(PQ) so plug that in (6)(10)=(PT)(3) , 60=3PT. 60/3 (because you want to get PT by itself) and the answer is 20.

Answer:

Length of PQ is 13

Explanation:

Length of arc PQ = length of PT + length of QT

Since length of QT = 3

And length of PT = length of RS = 10

Length of PQ = 3 + 10 = 13
