Step-by-step explanation:
The ratios of corresponding sides are 6/3, 8/4, 10/5. These all reduce to 2/1. It is then said that the scale factor of these two similar triangles is 2 : 1.
The perimeter of Δ ABC is 24 inches, and the perimeter of Δ DEF is 12 inches. When you compare the ratios of the perimeters of these similar triangles, you also get 2 : 1. This leads to the following theorem.
Theorem 60: If two similar triangles have a scale factor of a : b, then the ratio of their perimeters is a : b.
