The areas of two similar triangles are 121 cm2 and 64cm? respectively. If the median of the first triangle is 12.1 cm, then the corresponding median of the other triangle is O 11cm O 8.8 cm O 11.1 cm 0 8.1 cm

Answer:
hey here is your answer
pls mark it as brainliest
Step-by-step explanation:
so let the median of first triangle be m1 and that of other triangle similar to the first one be m2
so we know that
if the two triangles are similar then the ratios of their areas is the the ratio of square of their corresponding medians,sides,altitudes,etc
thus then
area of first triangle/area of second triangle=m1 square/m2 square
ie 121/64=(12.1)square/m2 square
taking square roots on both sides we get
11/8=12.1/m2
ie 1/8=1.1/m2
so m2=8.8 cm
thus the length of median of second triangle is 8.8 cm
so option b is correct
