Answer: The shortest side in triangle B has a measure of 15 units.
The ratio [tex]\frac{\text{length of side in triangle B}}{\text{length of corresponding side in triangle A is equal to }}2.5[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: Tayler enlarged triangle A proportionally to create triangle B.
She made each side 2.5 times as long.
The length of shortest side in triangle B = [tex]\text{2.5 * shortest side in triangle A}[/tex]
The shortest side of triangle A =6 units
Then, The length of shortest side in triangle B = [tex]2.5\times6=15\ units[/tex]
Also, the ratio [tex]\frac{\text{length of side in triangle B}}{\text{length of corresponding side in triangle A}}=\frac{15}{6}=\frac{30}{12}=\frac{25}{10}=2.5[/tex]
