The correct Answer is:
To find the ratio of the sides of two similar triangles given that the corresponding medians are in the ratio 5:7, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Property of Similar Triangles**: - In similar triangles, the ratio of the lengths of corresponding sides is equal to the ratio of the lengths of corresponding medians. 2. **Given Information**: - The ratio of the corresponding medians of the two similar triangles is given as 5:7. 3. **Applying the Property**: - Since the ratio of the medians is equal to the ratio of the sides, we can directly use this information. - Therefore, the ratio of the sides of the two triangles will also be 5:7. 4. **Conclusion**: - Thus, the ratio of the sides of the two similar triangles is 5:7. ### Final Answer: The ratio of the sides of the two similar triangles is **5:7**. ---
