ABC DEF. The area of DEF is given. Find the area of ABC.

Answer:
C. 240 in^2
Step-by-step explanation:
is it stated that two triangles are similar.
If they are similar then their area must be proportional too.
The side lengths' proportion is :
12/60 = 1/5 this can be used to find the area of the smaller triangle, ABC
Let x represent the are of triangle ABC
1/5 = x/1200 cross multiply both sides
5x = 1200 divide both sides by 5
x = 240 since the area is indicated with square value so the answer is
C. 240 in^2
