Question

ares of two similar triangles are 36sq cm and 100 sq cm.if the lenght of the side of larger angle is 20cm,then find corresponding sides of smaller triangle

Answer 1

Answer:

$12$ cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The area ratio is $36:100$.

The side length ratio is $\sqrt{36}:\sqrt{100}=6:10=3:5$

So the corresponding side length is $20\times\frac35=12$ cm.
