Answer:
B. 18 cm.
Step-by-step explanation:
Because they are similar, we can say that segment AC corresponds to segment DF, and segment AB corresponds to segment ED. So, we can set up a proportion.
[tex]\frac{16}{24} =\frac{12}{x}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{2}{3} =\frac{12}{x}[/tex]
2 * x = 12 * 3
2x = 36
x = 18
So, the length of ED is B. 18 cm.
Hope this helps!
