प्रश्न
Two figures are similar. If the ratio of their perimeters is 8:16. What will be the ratio of the corresponding sides?
उत्तर
We know that,
for two similar triangles, ratio of the corresponding sides is equal to ratio of the perimeters of the triangles.
⇒ Ratio of the corresponding sides = `(8)/(16) = (1)/(2)`
that is, ratio of the corresponding sides is 1: 2.
