Question

If the ratio of corresponding sides of two similar triangles is 5:6, then the ratio of their perimeters is

• A. 25:36
• B. 5:6
• C. 36:25
• D. 15:16

Hint:

The ratio of the perimeters of two similar triangles is the same as the ratio of their corresponding sides.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Step 1: For two similar triangles, the ratio of their corresponding sides is equal to the ratio of their perimeters. Thus, the ratio of their perimeters is the same as the ratio of their corresponding sides, which is \( 5:6 \). Thus, the correct answer is \( 5:6 \).
