Answer:

3/5

Step-by-step explanation:

subtract 2/5 from each side

not winning = 5/5-2/5

not winning = 3/5

This is the concept of transformations, given that ABC was rotated it implies that it retained it's original dimensions. This means that ABC is proportional to EFD. Therefore, given that EF=4.2 cm, DF=3.6 cm and DE=4.5 cm. The CB=FD=3.6 cm
