Solution 1

False.

The areas of similar triangles are proportional to the square of the ratio of their corresponding sides.

Given that ΔABC ~ ΔDEF, the ratio of their sides is BC/EF = 4.5/3.5 = 1.2857 (approximately).

So, the ratio of their areas should be (BC/EF)^2 = 1.2857^2 = 1.65306122449 (approximately Knowee AI is a powerful AI-powered study tool designed to help you to solve study problem.
