Question

The triangles shown are similar. Which side corresponds to QR?

A) FE
B) ED
C) FD
D) QP

Answer 1

The answer is FD because QR is the hypotenuse of the triangle, and FD is also the hypotenuse of the triangle. Since the two are similar triangles FD corresponds to QR

Answer 2

Answer: C) FD

Explanation:

Given: Triangle PQR and triangle DEF are similar,

We know that if two triangles are similar then their corresponding sides are proportional.

Since QR is the second largest side of Triangle PQR, and the second largest side in triangle DEF is FD .

Therefore by using proportionality, the side corresponds to QR is FD.
