Respuesta :

First, let's calculate the perimeter of the smaller triangle:

[tex]P=3+5+6=14\text{ cm}[/tex]

Now, let's calculate the ratio between the corresponding sides of the triangles:

[tex]r=\frac{22.5}{5}=4.5[/tex]

Then, to find the perimeter of the bigger triangle, we can multiply the perimeter of the smaller triangle by the ratio:

[tex]\begin{gathered} P=14\cdot4.5\\ \\ P=63\text{ cm} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Therefore the correct option is the fourth one.
