The perimeters of two similar triangles ∆ABC and ∆PQR are 36 cm and 24 cm respectively. If PQ = 10 cm, then what is the measure of AB?
Given:
∆ABC ~ ∆PQR (Similar triangles)
Perimeter of ∆ABC = 36 cm
Perimeter of ∆PQR = 24 cm
PQ = 10 cm
Concept Used:
The ratio of perimeters of two similar triangles is equal to the ratio of their corresponding sides.
Solution:
Substitute PQ = 10cm
AB = cm
AB = 15cm
