Question

In two similar triangles find the ratio of corresponding sides if the areas are 50cm²and 98cm²​

Answer 1

5:7

Explanation:

The areas of two triangles are 50cm²and 98cm²​.

We need to find the ratio of corresponding sides. It can be calculated as follows :

`(s_1)/(2_2)=\sqrt{(A_1)/(A_2)} \\\\=\sqrt{(50)/(98)}\\\\=\sqrt{(25)/(49)}\\\\=(5)/(7)`

So, the ratio of corresponding sides are 5:7.
