Write the ratio of corresponding sides for the similar triangles and reduce the ratio to lowest terms.

2 similar triangles. Triangle 1 has side lengths 16, 24, blank. Triangle 2 has side lengths 12, 18, blank.
a.
StartFraction 12 Over 24 EndFraction = StartFraction 18 Over 16 EndFraction = StartFraction 1 Over 2 EndFraction
b.
StartFraction 12 Over 18 EndFraction = StartFraction 16 Over 24 EndFraction = StartFraction 2 Over 3 EndFraction
c.
StartFraction 12 Over 16 EndFraction = StartFraction 18 Over 24 EndFraction = StartFraction 3 Over 4 EndFraction
d.
StartFraction 18 Over 12 EndFraction = StartFraction 24 Over 16 EndFraction = StartFraction 3 Over 2 EndFraction
