Construct a right-triangle where the sides (other than the hypotenuse) are of lengths 5 cm and 7 cm. Then, construct another triangle whose sides are `(4)/(5)` times the corresponding sides of the given triangle.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
`(AB')/(AB )= (B' C')/(BC )= (AC ')/(AC ) = (4)/(5)`.
