Question

Find the ratios of the corresponding sides

Answer 1

ratio =
`(5)/(4)`

Explanation:

The ratios of the corresponding sides are

`(JK)/(RS)`,
`(KL)/(ST)`,
`(JL)/(RT)`

`(JK)/(RS)` =
`(15)/(12)` =
`(5)/(4)`

`(KL)/(ST)` =
`(20)/(16)` =
`(5)/(4)`

`(JL)/(RT)` =
`(25)/(20)` =
`(5)/(4)`

Answer 2

The ratio of the sides of triangle JKL to triangle RST is 5:4.

Explanation:

Let's take the corresponding sides JL and RT. Note they are opposite the equal angles marked '(('.

JL / RT = 25 / 20

= 5/4.
