to
32cm² and 50cm ². The ratio of their
corresponding sides is​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the ratio of perimeters of 2 similar triangles are equal to ratio of corresponding sides

i.e.,

perimeterof2

nd

perimeterof1

st

=

sideof2

nd

sideof1

st

⇒

50

40

=

sideof2

nd

sideof1

st

=

5

4

As both the triangles are similar

⇒

Areaof2

nd

Areaof1

st

=(

(sideof2

nd

)

2

(sideof1
