To find the highest common factor (HCF) between two numbers , first to take HCF of both the numbers.

\purple {\Large\begin{array}{r | l}2&\underline{12}\\3& \underline{6}\\2&\underline{2}\\&\underline{1}\\\end{array}} \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:   \:  \: \:  \: \purple {\Large\begin{array}{r | l}2&\underline{40}\\2& \underline{20}\\5&\underline{10}\\2&\underline{2} \ \\ &\underline{1}\\\end{array}}

  • Take every common prime factor between 12 and 40

\red {\large \implies} \large \: 12 \:  =  \: 2 \:  \times  \:  3 \:  \times  \: 2 \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \\  \\ \red {\large \implies} \large \:40 \:  =  \: 2 \:  \times  \: 2 \:  \times  \: 5 \:  \times  \: 2 \:

  • Finally, identify the factors common to each number and multiply those common factors together.

\rm\orange {\large \implies} \large \:Common \:   factors \: =  \: 2 \:  \times  \: 2

\rm\orange {\large \implies} \large \:HCF = 4

Answer:

  • B. BC = 18 so ∆ABC ~ ∆DEF by SAS

Step-by-step explanation:

\bf \cfrac{AB}{DE}  =  \cfrac{BC}{EF}

  • \bf \cfrac{15}{10}  =  \cfrac{BC}{12}
  • \bf  \cfrac{3}{2}  =  \cfrac{BC}{12}
  • \bf BC =  \cfrac{3}{2}  \times 12
  • \bf 3 \times 6
  • \bf BC = 18
  • \bf \angle B = \angle \: E

So, ∆ABC ~ ∆DEF by SAS.
