Since the architect wants similar figures, it comes from the definition of similar triangles that the ratio of corresponding sides (all 3 sides) should be equal.

So,

\frac{7.5}{6}= \frac{5}{4}= \frac{10}{CB}.

Let's find CB.

\frac{7.5}{6} =\frac{5}{4}= \frac{10}{CB}\\ 1.25=1.25=\frac{10}{CB}\\ 1.25=\frac{10}{CB}\\ 1.25CB=10\\CB=\frac{10}{1.25}\\ CB=8

So, CB should be 8. Option C is correct.


ANSWER: Change the length of side CB to 8 feet
