You can put this solution on YOUR website!
$\"PS\"$ is the perpendicular bisector of $\"QR\"$ ,\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"PQ=4x%2B19\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"PR=2x%2B32\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "find: $\"PQ\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "since triangle $\"PQR\"$ is an isosceles triangle, $\"PQ=PR\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "then we have $\"4x%2B19=2x%2B32\"$ ...solve for $\"x\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"4x-2x=32-19\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"2x=13\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"x=13%2F2\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"x=6.5\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "so, since $\"PQ=4x%2B19\"$ , plug in $\"x=6.5\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"PQ=4%2A6.5%2B19\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"PQ=26%2B19\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"highlight%28PQ=45%29\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
