Question

Write the ratio of corresponding sides for the similar triangles and reduce the ratio to lowest terms.

CA

a 3 93

12

b. 3 4 1

3 - 12 =

c. 3 4 1

T2 - 3 -

d. 4 12 4

Answer 1

B.

Explanation:

Write the ratio of corresponding sides for the similar triangles and reduce the ratio to lowest terms. a 4/10=5/8=2/5. b 4/8=5/10=1/2. c 10/4=8/5=5/2.

Answer 2

`(4)/(8)` =
`(5)/(10)` =
`(1)/(2)`

Explanation:

For two or more triangles to be congruent this implies that when compared, there exists a relationship among their angles and sides. They would have exactly the same three sides and exactly the same three angles. The relationship can be expressed in the following form: SSS (side-side-side) when all three corresponding sides are congruent, SAS (side-angle-side) when two sides and the angle between them are congruent and ASA (angle-side-angle) when two angles and a side are congruent.

The corresponding sides reduced to lowest terms are:
`(4)/(8)` =
`(5)/(10)` =
`(1)/(2)`
