Answer: [tex]312.5\ cm^2[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
A and B are two similar shape with lengths of 12 cm and 15 cm
A has an area of [tex]200\ cm^2[/tex]
For similar figures, ratio of the square of corresponding length is equal to the ratio of the area
[tex]\Rightarrow \dfrac{200}{A_b}=\dfrac{12^2}{15^2}\\\\\Rightarrow A_b=\dfrac{15^2}{12^2}\times 200\\\\\Rightarrow A_b=312.5\ cm^2[/tex]
