Question

Tayler enlarged triangle A proportionally. She made each side 2.5 times as long. Use the drop-down menus to complete the statements below.

Answer 1

Answer: The shortest side in triangle B has a measure of 15 units.

The ratio $\frac{\text{length of side in triangle B}}{\text{length of corresponding side in triangle A is equal to }}2.5$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Tayler enlarged triangle A proportionally to create triangle B.

She made each side 2.5 times as long.

The length of shortest side in triangle B = $\text{2.5 * shortest side in triangle A}$

The shortest side of triangle A =6 units

Then, The length of shortest side in triangle B = $2.5\times6=15\ units$

Also, the ratio $\frac{\text{length of side in triangle B}}{\text{length of corresponding side in triangle A}}=\frac{15}{6}=\frac{30}{12}=\frac{25}{10}=2.5$
