When three parallel lines are cut by two transversals and the intercepts made by the first transversal are in the ratio 3 : 4, then the intercepts made by the second transversal are in the ratio:

A2 : 4

B1 : 1

C3 : 4

D4 : 3

Answer:

C. 3 : 4

Read Explanation:

Since the intercepts made by the first transversal are in the ratio 3:4, the intercepts made by the second transversal will also be in the same ratio. This follows from the basic principle of proportionality in parallel lines and transversals.
