Me ! each dimension of a right triangle with legs of length 6 cm and 8 cm and a hypotenuse of length 10 cm is multiplied by 1/2 to form a similar right triangle. how is the ratio of perimeters related to the ratio of corresponding sides? how is the ratio of areas related to the ratio of corresponding sides? the ratio of perimeters is one-fourth of the ratio of corresponding sides. the ratio of areas is the cube of the ratio of corresponding sides. the ratio of perimeters is equal to the ratio of corresponding sides. the ratio of areas is the cube of the ratio of corresponding sides. the ratio of perimeters is one-fourth of the ratio of corresponding sides. the ratio of areas is the square of the ratio of corresponding sides. the ratio of perimeters is equal to the ratio of corresponding sides. the ratio of areas is the square of the ratio of corresponding sides.
