We need to look at 2 similar triangles

1) big one: legs - a,b, and hypotenuse - c

2)small one: legs - h,s, and hypotenuse - b.


Corresponding sides:

hypotenuse - c and hypotenuse - b,

big leg - b and big leg - s,

small leg - a, and small leg h.


?(/b(big leg, big triangle)= b(hypotenuse, small triangle )/s (big leg, small triangle)


? should be hypotenuse of the big triangle, c.


Answer is second one c.
