I think the answer is 13.5. △DEF is 1.5 times bigger than <span>△ABC</span>

Similar triangles have corresponding sides with proportional lengths.

AB/BC = DE/EF

5/9 = 7.5/EF

5(EF) = 9 * 7.5

5(EF) = 67.5

EF = 13.5

Math 2 Of high school

Daniel [21]

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.

Area and perimeter of geometric functions

SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

C. 60

Step-by-step explanation:

From triangle ADB,

$|AD|^2+|BD|^2=|AB|^2$

$|AD|^2+16^2=20^2$

$|AD|^2=20^2-16^2$

$|AD|^2=400-256$

$|AD|^2=144$

$|AD|=\sqrt{144}$

$|AD|=12$

From triangle ADC,

$|CD|^2+12^2=15^2$

$|CD|^2+144=225$

$|CD|^2=225-144$

$|CD|^2=81$

$|CD|=9$

The perimeter is the distance around the figure.

The perimeter

$=15+20+16+9$

$=60$
