ΔEFG and ΔHIJ are similar. Also, ∠E = ∠H and ∠F = ∠I. If 3EF = HI and FG = 9 cm, then IJ is equal to ____.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 2 i.e. 27 cm.
Given that,
ΔEFG and ΔHIJ are similar
∠E = ∠H and ∠F = ∠I
So,
⇒ x/9 = 3x/K
⇒ 1/9 = 3/K
⇒ K = 9 × 3
⇒ K = 27
