ΔAXY is similar to ΔABC.

triangles ABC and AXY that share vertex A where point X is between points A and B and point Y is between points A and C

Which of the following expressions could be used to determine the length of segment AB?

AB equals AX times AC over AY
AB equals AX times AY over AC
AB = AY
AB = AX

ΔAXY Is Similar To ΔABC Triangles ABC And AXY That Share Vertex A Where Point X Is Between Points A And B And Point Y Is Between Points A And C Which Of The Fol class=

Answer :

Answer:

1st option

Step-by-step explanation:

since the triangles are similar then the ratios of corresponding sides are in proportion , that is

[tex]\frac{AB}{AX}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{AC}{AY}[/tex] ( cross- multiply )

AB × AY = AX × AC ( divide both sides by AY )

AB = AX times AC over AY
