The sides of the triangle are 2.5 cm, 1.5 cm and 3 cm, find the sides of the triangle similar to it, if its large side is 9 cm

We are given two similar triangles and one of them has side lengths of 2.5 cm, 1.5 cm and 3 cm.And in the second triangle, the length of the larger side is 9 cm.

In order to find the lengths of the sides of the second triangle, we start by calculating the coefficient of similarity. To do this, we divide the length of the larger side of the second triangle by the length of the larger side of the second triangle.

9 cm: 3 cm = 3 – coefficient of similarity.

It remains to find the lengths of the sides:

2.5 * 3 = 7.5 cm;

1.5 * 3 = 4.5 cm and the length is longer than the side we know from the condition 9 cm.
