Explanation:
- The ratio of the areas of two similar triangles is equal to the square of the ratio of their corresponding sides.
- Given the area ratio 196:625, find the side length ratio.
- To find the side ratio, take the square root of each side of the ratio.
- Square root of 196 is 14.
- Square root of 625 is 25.
- So, the corresponding side ratio is 14:25.
Let's evaluate the options:
- Option 1: 14:25
- Option 2: 13:20
