Question

Triangle KLM is similar to triangle RST . Which statement is a proportionality statement for the ratio of the sides of the triangles?

A) KLRS=LMRT=MKST
A) KLTS=LMRS=KMTR
A) KMSR=LMST=KLRT
A) KLRS=LMST=KMRT

Answer 1

`(KL)/(RS) =(LM)/(ST) =(KM)/(RT)`

Explanation:

ΔKLM is similar to ΔRST

So, the corresponding sides are proportional

the corresponding sides are:

KL corresponding to RS

LM corresponding to ST

KM corresponding to RT

So, the proportionality statement for the ratio of the sides of the triangles:

`(KL)/(RS) =(LM)/(ST) =(KM)/(RT)`

The answer is option 4
