anonymous · Answer

sorry

anonymous · Answer

AB/DE = 5/4
sub in value of side AB and value of side DE in the above equn to get x
AC/DF = 5/4
sub in the value of side AC and value of side DF in the abv eqn to get y
then divide x and y to get the ratio

you get x=112 and y =18
now find ratio of x and y

anonymous · Answer
