Answer:
(i) 22.5
(ii) 7.2
Step-by-step explanation:
(i)
AB:PQ = 2:5 = 1:2.5
So PQ is 2.5 times longer than AB.
PQ=2.5AB=(2.5)9=22.5
(ii):
Since the triangles are similar, their sides are in ratio to each other. So if PQ was 2.5 times longer than AB, QR must also be 2.5 times longer than BC:
QR=2.5BC
BC=QR/2.5=18/2.5=7.2
