Question

Triangle ABC is similar to triangle PQR, as shown below: which equation is correct?

Answer 1

Pretty sure the answer is B

Answer 2

B)
`(p)/(a)` =
`(r)/(c)`

Explanation:

Given : Triangle ABC is similar to triangle PQR, as shown below.

To find : which equation is correct.

Solution : We have given triangle ABC and PRR.

Both the triangles are similar .

Similar triangle : When two figures are similar, the ratios of the lengths of their corresponding sides are equal.

AC corresponding to PR .

AB corresponding to PQ .

BC corresponding to QR .

Then ratio :

`(r)/(c)` =
`(p)/(a)` .

Therefore, B)
`(p)/(a)` =
`(r)/(c)` .
