HEY DEAR ...
The ratio of areas of two similar triangles is equal to the ratio of the squares
of their corresponding heights.
⇒ So, ratio of areas of two similar triangles = ratio of the ratio of the squares of their corresponding heights = 16 : 25
So, ratio of the squares of their corresponding heights = √(16/25)
= 4/5
= 4 : 5
Hence the ratio of corresponding heights is 4 : 5.
