Answer:

The correct answer is option B. 8,16, 20

Explanation:

Its given that,ΔJKL ~ ΔPQR, with a scale factor of 3 : 4

The sides of ΔJKL are, 6,12,15

Let 'x', 'y', and 'z' be the sides of ΔPQR

We know that if two triangles are similar, then the ratio of corresponding sides are in same raio.

To find x

6/x = 3/4

x = 8

To find y

12/y = 3/4

y = 16

To find z

15/z = 3/4

z = 20

Therefore the sides of ΔPQR are 8,16 and 20

Option B. 8,16,20 is the correct answer
