Answer:

Option C

Explanation:

As we know,

Theorem of equivalent triangle states that two similar triangle's area will be proportional to square of corresponding sites.

Thus ,

\frac{18}{24} = (\frac{LM}{FG} )^2\\

On taking square root on both the sides and solving the equation further , we get -

\sqrt{\frac{18}{24} } = \frac{LM}{FG}\\\frac{LM}{FG} = \sqrt{\frac{3}{4} } \\\frac{LM}{FG} = \frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}

Thus, option C is correct

Answer:  Option 'C' is correct.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Area of triangle LMN = 18 ft²

Area of triangle FGH = 24 ft²

Since Δ LMN and ΔFGH is equivalent triangles.

As we know the theorem which states that ratio of areas of equivalent triangles is equal to square of ratio of corresponding sides.

So, it becomes,

\dfrac{\Delta LMN}{\Delta FGH}=(\dfrac{LM}{FG})^2\\\\\dfrac{18}{24}=(\dfrac{LM}{FG})^2\\\\\dfrac{3}{4}=(\dfrac{LM}{FG})^2\\\\\sqrt{\dfrac{3}{4}}=\dfrac{LM}{FG}\\\\\dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{2}=\dfrac{LM}{FG}

Hence, Option 'C' is correct.

steposvetlana [31]
You are correct :) Red coat's genotype would be tt and the black bull's genotype would be Tt. You put those in a punnett square, and you'd get 2 tt's and 2 Tt's. Hope this helps! :D

For the given situation above, I'm afraid I cannot answer your question since a pedigree chart isn't provided along with the question. You can resubmit your question together with the chart and we'll analyze it. Thank you for posting though. Here is what pedigree analysis is about.

Scientists have devised an approach, called pedigree analysis<span>, to study the inheritance of genes in humans. Pedigree analysis is also useful when studying any population when progeny data from several generations is limited. Pedigree analysis is also useful when studying species with a long generation time.</span>
