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.

Ilya [14]

Answer: Heart

The striated muscle tissue with relatively small cells that have one or two nuclei can be found at the heart. The intracellular calcium signaling is an intrinsic component of signal transduction pathways that regulate vital aspects of muscle function including excitability, force production, protein synthesis, and energy expenditure that occurs in the striated muscle tissue of the heart.
