Answer:
I believe this is a "trick" question. From the equations given, I can get 3 different solutions.
Step-by-step explanation:
WY = XZ because corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent.
(7p + 13) + 2p = 18 + 4
9p + 13 = 22
9p = 9
p = 1
∠ZXY = ∠WYX because corresponding angles of congruent triangles are congruent.
Because ∠ZXY = ∠WYX, ΔVXY is isosceles and XV = YV
2p = 4 because corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent.
p = 2
also, because of congruency,
WV = ZV
7p + 13 = 18
7p = 5
p = 5/7
