Given the information below, QRS is UVT similar to ? If so, give the scale factor.

QR= 8 RS = 16 UV = 18 VT= 34 M<S=36 M<T=36

A.No, the triangles are not similar.
B.Yes, the scale factor is 1:2.
C.Yes, the scale factor is 4:9.
D.Yes, the scale factor is 8:17.

[tex]Look\ at\ the\ picture.\\\\\Delta QRS\sim\Delta UVT\ if\ \frac{|QR|}{|UV|}=\frac{|RS|}{|VT|}\\\\\frac{|QR|}{|UV|}=\frac{8}{18}=\frac{4}{9}\\\\\frac{|RS|}{|VT|}=\frac{16}{34}=\frac{8}{17}\\\\Answer:A.\ No,\ the\ triangles\ are\ not\ similar.[/tex]
