DE/AB=DF/AC

10/5=DF/15

=10×15=5DF

=150=5DF

DF=150÷5

=30

Answer:

Such triangles do not exist.

Step-by-step explanation:

There is some mistake in your question.

We know:

In any triangle with sides a, b and c:

a + b > c

a + c > b

b + c > a

In your question the triangle ABC has:

a = 5, b = 10, c = 15

then

5 + 10 = 15 not > 15.

a + b = c not > c.

In my opinion, the question makes no mathematical sense.

Nevertheless, the moderator asked me to correct my answer.

If two triangles are similar, then corresponding sides are in proportion.

[tex]\dfrac{10}{5}=\dfrac{20}{10}=\dfrac{x}{15}\\\\2=2=\dfrac{x}{15}\\\\\dfrac{x}{15}=2\Rightarrow x=30[/tex]
