We are given two triangles ABC and DEF... it is given that they are similar and we know that when 2 triangles are similar the ratio of their corresponding sides are equal... Here, the corresponding sides are AB/DE and BC/EF but maryam has taken the wrong ratio.. Maryam has taken AB/EF and BC/DE...

Lets solve it:

AB/DE = BC/EF

  • AB = x
  • DE = 18
  • BC = 16
  • EF = 12

x/18 = 16/12

x/18 = 4/3

  • Cross multiply

3x = 72

x = 24m
