Answer:

B.RY/RS=RX/RT=XY/TS

Explanation:

If Triangles RST and RYX are similar, then the ratio of their corresponding sides is:


(RS)/(RY)= (ST)/(YX)=(RT)/(RX)\\$This could also be written by switching the numerator and denominators as:\\(RY)/(RS)= (XY)/(TS)=(RX)/(RT)

Out of the given options, Option B is true.
