Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Δ AQP and Δ ACB are similar triangles, thus the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is

[tex]\frac{AQ}{AC}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{PQ}{BC}[/tex] ( note that AC = 3 + 6 = 9 ), substitute values

[tex]\frac{3}{9}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{4.5}{BC}[/tex] ( cross- multiply )

3BC = 40.5 ( divide both sides by 3 )

BC = 13,5 cm → C
