Question

Triangle ABC is similar to triangle PQR, as shown below:

Two similar triangles ABC and PQR are shown. Triangle ABC has sides AB equals c, BC equals a, and AC equals b. Triangle PQR has sides PQ equals r, QR equals p, and PR equals q. Angle CAB is congruent to angle RPQ. Angle ABC is congruent to angle RQP. Angle ACB is congruent to angle QRP.

Which equation is correct?

q over c is equal to r over b
c over p is equal to b over a
c over a is equal to q over r
q over b is equal to r over c

Answer 1

Answer: a/b=r/c

Step-by-step explanation: i did the

Answer 2

q/b = r/c

Explanation:

We can determine which equation is correct by looking at the similar angles

A ~ P and B ~ Q so the side length that is between these angles would be proportional which are :

r/c

Next up

C ~ R and again B ~ Q and the side length that is between these angles:

q/b

so the answer is

q/b = r/c as given in last option
