Parallelogram PARL is similar to parallelogram WXYZ. If AP = 15, PL = 25, and WZ = 75, find the value of c.
40
75
3
45
In similar figures, corresponding sides are proportional. Therefore,
AP/ WZ = PL / c.
Substitute the given values:
15 / 75 = 25 / c
1 / 5 = 25 / c
c = 25 * 5
c = 125
Therefore, the value of c is 125.
