Answer:

XZ = 13.5 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangles are similar then the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is

[tex]\frac{PR}{XZ}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{QR}{YZ}[/tex] , substitute values

[tex]\frac{9}{XZ}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{6}{9}[/tex] ( cross- multiply )

6XZ = 81 ( divide both sides by 6 )

XZ = 13.5 in
