We have the following relationship

 

 ΔPQR  similar to  ΔQTR  similar to  ΔPTQ

 

Note  that

 

PT            QT

___   =     ___

TQ            TR

 

So... "A"  is correct

 

 

 

We  have  that

 

16             x

___   =    ___      cross-multiply

  x             9

 

16 * 9  =  x^2

 

144 = x^2     take the positive root of both sides

 

12  =  x

 

 

cool cool cool
