If ∆ABC is similar to ADEF, and BC = 36 EF = 3 and DF = 6 what is the measure of AB?
I apologize for the incorrect response.
Since ∆ABC is similar to ∆ADEF, the corresponding sides are proportional. Therefore, AB/AD = BC/DE.
Substituting the given values, we have AB/6 = 36/3.
Simplifying, we find AB/6 = 12.
To solve for AB, we can cross-multiply:
AB = 6 * 12 = 72.
Therefore, the measure of AB is 72.
Since ∆ABC is similar to ∆DEF, the corresponding sides are proportional. Therefore, AB/DE = BC/EF.
Substituting the given values, we have AB/3 = 36/3.
Simplifying, we find AB = 36.
Therefore, the measure of AB is 36.
