Construct a triangle with sides 5 cm, 6 ...

Construct a triangle with sides 5 cm, 6 cm and 7 cm and then another triangle whose sides are `(7)/(5)` of the corresponding sides of the first triangle.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
`(AB')/( AB) = (7)/( 5);` hence `(AC') /( AC ) = (AB')/( AB) = (B' C' ) /( BC ) = (7)/( 5)`.
