If the corresponding medians of two similar triangles are in ratio 5:7. Then find the ratio of their corresponding sides.

Given: Ratio of Corresponding Medians = 5:7


We know that if two triangles are similar, their perimeters and corresponding sides, medians and altitudes will all be in the same ratio.


The ratio of their medians = Ratio of their Corresponding Sides


Hence, Ratio of their Corresponding Sides = 5:7
