Q.If a triangle similar to one with sides 4 cm, 6 cm, and 8 cm has its largest side measuring 6 cm, what is the length of the smallest side of that triangle? (a) 4 cm (b) 3 cm (c) 2 cm (d) 5 cm
Answer: B
Let the length of the smallest side of the triangle be \( x \) cm ∴ \( \frac{6}{x} = \frac{8}{4} \) ⇒ \( 8x = 24 \) ⇒ \( x = 3 \)
