Question

In two similar triangles find the ratio of corresponding sides if the areas are 50cm²and 98cm²​

Answer 1

Answer:

5:7

Step-by-step explanation:

The areas of two triangles are 50cm²and 98cm²​.

We need to find the ratio of corresponding sides. It can be calculated as follows :

$\dfrac{s_1}{2_2}=\sqrt{\dfrac{A_1}{A_2}} \\\\=\sqrt{\dfrac{50}{98}}\\\\=\sqrt{\dfrac{25}{49}}\\\\=\dfrac{5}{7}$

So, the ratio of corresponding sides are 5:7.
