Answer to Problem 6CR
The ratio is
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
Formula used:
The below theorem is used:
If two triangles are similar, then the ratio of the area of both triangles is proportional to the square of the ratio of their corresponding sides.
Calculation:
If two triangles are similar, then the ratio of the area of both triangles is proportional to the square of the ratio of their corresponding sides.
Perimeter is sum of all sides. Thus, the ratio of the area of both triangles is also proportional to their perimeters.
