Given:
Triangles FRI and DAY are similar.
To find:
Similarity ratio
Solution:
<em>If two triangles are similar then the corresponding angles are congruent and the corresponding sides are in proportion.</em>
Here, FR and DA are corresponding sides.
Cancel the common factors of 4 and 6, we get
⇒ FR : DA = 2 : 3
⇒ ΔFRI : ΔDAY = 2 : 3
Similarity ratio of the first triangle to the second triangle is 2 : 3.
