Question 936350

what is the ratio of corresponding sides of two similar triangles whos areas are 36 square inches and 144 square inches?
<pre>
Ratio of the sides of two similar triangles will be the SQUARE ROOT of the ratio of the areas of the triangles.
Thus, {{{36/144}}} becomes: {{{(sqrt(36))/sqrt(144)}}}, or {{{6/12}}}, or {{{1/2}}}, or {{{highlight_green(1:2)}}}
