  4.    I−a,II−b,III−c
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> I−c,II−a,III−b
:
A
Scale factor basically defines the ratio between the sides of the constructed triangle to that of the original triangle.
So when we see the scale factor(mn)>1, it means the sides of the constructed triangle is larger than the original triangle i.e., the triangle constructed is larger than the original triangle.
Similarly, if scale factor (mn)<1, then the sides of the constructed triangle is smaller than that of the original triangle i.e., the constructed triangle is smaller than the original triangle.
When we have scale factor (mn)=1, then the sides of both the constructed triangle and that of the original triangle is equal.
When a pair of similar triangles haveequal corresponding sides, then the pair of similar triangles can be called as congruent because then thetriangles will have equal corresponding sides and equal corresponding angles.

AA postulate is used to prove the similarity of the constructed triangle.
In the above diagram, ΔABC is similar to ΔABC. A'C' has been constructed parallel to AC. Hence, the similarity of the triangles can be proved by the AA similarity method.

SinceBC and BC' lie on the same line, the points B, C andC' are collinear.
BCCC=35
Therefore BCBC=BC+CCBC
BCBC= 1+ CCBC
CCBC= 53.
SoBCBC=83
BCBC =38
The ratio of corresponding sides of triangles ABC and ABC =38
