Answer:

13. 3/2

14. 2/3

Explanation:

Since they are similar, you can match

AB = DE

BC = EF

AC = DF

8 = 12

10 = 15

12 = 18

A ratio is a fraction. Since it says DEF to ABC, that means


(def)/(abc)

So all we need to do is take one number from def and the number it's equal to from abc. let's do 15

Since 15 is associated with 10


(15)/(10)

If we simplify


(15)/(10) = (3)/(2)

The second one says ABC to DEF.

All they did was switch the triangles around, so all we have to do is switch the numbers around. making it...


(2)/(3)
