Write the ratio of corresponding sides for the similar triangles and reduce the ratio to lowest terms.

a12/24=18/16=1/2
b12/18=16/24=2/3
c12/16=18/24=3/4
d18/12=24/16=3/2

Write the ratio of corresponding sides for the similar triangles and reduce the ratio-example-1

see the attached figure with letter to better understand the problem

we know that

If triangle ABC is similar to triangle PQR

then

the ratio of the corresponding sides are proportional

so


(PQ)/(AB)= (QR)/(BC)

substitute the values


(12)/(16)=(18)/(24)=(3)/(4)

therefore

the answer is the option C


(12)/(16)=(18)/(24)=(3)/(4)
