AB/LM = p(ABC)/p(LMN) AB/8 = 60/48 AB = 60*8/48 AB = 10cm.

Perimeter Ratio is 60:48 Similar side Ratio will also be the same So 60:48 :: x:8 Gives x = 60x 8/48 = 10 cm Ans

suppose length of AB =X . IN similar triangle ABC :LMN =60:48 =AB:LM =X :8 ,OR 60/48 = X/8 , OR X/8 = 5/4 , Or x=10 .AB =10cm answer.

Find three numbers in A.P. whose sum is 21 and their product is 231.
Let, three numbers are (a-d), a, (a+d) So, (a-d)+a+(a+d)=21 => a=7 Again, (7-d)×7×(7+d)=231 => (7-d)×(7+d)=231÷7 => 7^2 - d^2 = 33=> d^2 = 49 - 33=> d^2 = 16=> d = 4 So, the numbers are 7-4= 3, 7 and 7+4=11
