I think it's D, but I'm not sure.

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

The only side in triangle ABC that has a length is side AC. What side in triangle XYZ corresponds to side AC?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

XZ

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

Correct. Since the question is the ratio of XYZ to ABC, then it is 10 : 15 which reduces to 2:3 Which means you are correct.
