/\ABC ~/\DEF

So,

 \frac{ar(abc)}{ar(def)}  =   { (\frac{bc}{ef}) }^{2}  \\  \frac{64}{100}  =  {( \frac{bc}{12}) }^{2}  \\  \sqrt{ \frac{64}{100} }  =  \frac{bc}{12}  \\  \frac{8}{10}  =  \frac{bc}{12}  \\  \frac{4}{5}  \times 12 = bc \\ bc =  \frac{48}{5}  \\ bc = 9.6(ans)

Hey your answer is here.

HOPE IT IS HELPFUL........:)
