Drag points A, B, D, E, or G, H to change the size of the triangles, but notice the two angles remain the same.
Use the sides of the triangles to calculate the ratios e/d, a/d, e/d for triangle ABC, then j/k, g/k, and j/g for triangle DEF, and q/p,l/p, and q/l for triangle GHI. Calculate those ratios for multiple different sizes of ABC, DEF, and GHI.
