Question
In Exercises 3 and $4,$ ind the scale factor. Then list all pairs of congruent angles and write the ratios of the corresponding side lengths in a statement of proportionality. $$\triangle \mathrm{ABC} \sim \triangle \mathrm{LMN}$$
Step 1
To do this, we compare the corresponding sides of the two triangles. We start with the sides 9 and 6.75. If we divide 9 by 6.75, we get $\frac{4}{3}$. This is our scale factor. Show more…
