Answer:
72
Step-by-step explanation:
The two right triangles are congruent by the HA congruence theorem, so corresponding sides have the same length.
QR = QT
3p = p +48 . . . . . . substitute the given measure expressions
2p = 48 . . . . . . . subtract p
p = 24 . . . . . . . divide by 2
QT = p +48 = 24 +48 . . . . . use the value of p in the expression for QT
QT = 72
