To solve the problem, we will use the property of similar triangles. Since triangle ACB is similar to triangle APQ, we can set up a proportion based on their corresponding sides. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Write down the similarity ratio**: Since triangle ACB ~ triangle APQ, we can write the ratios of the corresponding sides: \[ \frac{AC}{AP} = \frac{BC}{PQ} = \frac{AB}{AQ} ...
