Answer:

b by q is equal to a by p

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If triangle ABC is similar to triangle PQR

then

the ratio of their corresponding sides are equal

so

[tex]\frac{CB}{RQ}=\frac{AC}{RP}=\frac{AB}{PQ}[/tex]

substitute the values

[tex]\frac{a}{p}=\frac{b}{q}=\frac{c}{r}[/tex]

therefore

the answer is

b by q is equal to a by p

Answer: The answer is (3) b by q is equal to a by p.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that ΔABC and ΔPQR are similar to each other.

Also, AB = c, BC = a, CA = b, PQ = r, QR = p and RP = q.

From the figure provided, we can conclude that the vertex A corresponds to vertex P, vertex B corresponds to vertex Q and vertex C corresponds to vertex R.

We know that the corresponding sides of two similar triangles are proportional.

Since ΔABC and ΔPQR are proportional, so we have

[tex]\dfrac{AB}{PQ}=\dfrac{BC}{QR}=\dfrac{CA}{RP}\\\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{c}{r}=\dfrac{a}{p}=\dfrac{b}{q}.[/tex]

This gives

[tex]\dfrac{b}{q}=\dfrac{a}{p}.[/tex]

Thus, option (3) b by q is equal to a by p is correct.
