Question

The areas of two similar triangles have a ratio of 16:49. What is the ratio of their perimeters?
Question options:
A) 256/2401
B) 16/49
C) 64/343
D) 4/7

Answer 1

The ratio of areas is the square of the ratio of perimeters (or any linear measure). Then the ratio of perimeters is the square root of the ratio of areas:
.. √(16/49) = 4/7

Selection D is appropriate.

Answer 2

The ratio of the perimeters of the similar triangles are 4/7.

What is the ratio of the perimeter?

Similar triangles are triangles that have the same shape but the length of the sides of one is increased by constant dimensions in relation to the other triangle.

Ratio of the perimeter = √16/49 = 4/9
