    Longest Side is 15 and 21.

    Find the ratio which is 21/15.

    = 1.4, so every side multiply by 1.4 will give the size of the sides of the other triangle.

    *note : it's a similar triangular so enlargement is used and the enlargement factor (k) is = 1.4*

    so. 6 * 1.4 = 8.4

    and. 8 * 1.4 = 11.2.
