Triangle RST is shown with side RS labeled 12 meters, side ST labeled 13 meters, and side TR labeled 5 meters. Triangle BCD is shown with side BC labeled 6 meters, side CD labeled 6.5 meters, and side DB labeled 2.5 meters.
A. 2:1
B. 6:12
C. 1:2
D. none of these
i got the answers
c
c
a
b
d 100%
the last one is c my fault
BC/RS = 6/12 = 1/2.
someone help i need answers
correct
yup
To find the ratio of the measures of side BC to side RS in simplest form, we need to compare the lengths of BC and RS.
From the given information, we know that side BC is 6 meters in length, and side RS is 12 meters in length.
To simplify the ratio, we divide both lengths by their greatest common divisor (GCD). The GCD of 6 and 12 is 6.
Dividing 6 by 6 gives us 1, and dividing 12 by 6 gives us 2.
Therefore, the ratio of the measures of side BC to side RS in simplest form is 1:2.
So, the correct answer is C. 1:2.
