the ratio of the area is 9:16 Step-by-step explanation: Let the ratio of corresponding sides of similar triangles is S 1 : S 2 =3:5 since the triangles are similar then [tex] \frac{a1}{a2} = ( \frac{s1}{s2}) {}^{2} = ( \frac{3}{5} ) {}^{2} = \frac{9}{16} [/tex] the ratio of the area is 9:16 Reply
the ratio of the area is 9:16
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the ratio of corresponding sides of similar triangles is S 1 : S 2 =3:5
since the triangles are similar then
[tex] \frac{a1}{a2} = ( \frac{s1}{s2}) {}^{2} = ( \frac{3}{5} ) {}^{2} = \frac{9}{16} [/tex]
the ratio of the area is 9:16
