8/12 =View attachment 13811
I need help finding the ratio for this triangle.
10/5 = 2/3 ?? No it doesn't.
Ok so both of these are equal to 2/3. Does AB/FG equal 2/3 also?8/12 =
10/15 =
Are you given that the angle at C = the angle at H? Or are you just assuming they are equal because it looks like they might be?Ok so both of these are equal to 2/3. Does AB/FG equal 2/3 also?
I’m having trouble setting up the proportion. How did get those lengths in the picture?10/5 = 2/3 ?? No it doesn't.
In these ratios, the numbers are the lengths of the sides of a triangle. 10 is, but 5 isn't.
You should be looking at 10/15 and 6/9 which are both 2/3.
So, 2 pairs of sides are proportional and the angle between them are equal (SAS).
So, yes the answer is B.
