Answer:

Option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the picture attached,

ΔA'B'C' is a dilation of ΔABC which means image ΔA'B'C' is similar to ΔABC.

By the property of similarity corresponding sides of both the triangles will be proportional.

[tex]\frac{\text{AB}}{\text{A'B'}}=\frac{\text{BC}}{\text{B'C'}}=\frac{\text{AC}}{\text{A'C'}}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{AB}{6}=\frac{15}{10}[/tex]

AB = [tex]\frac{6\times 15}{10}[/tex]

AB = [tex]\frac{90}{10}[/tex]

AB = 9 units

Therefore, length of side AB = 9 units.

Option C. will be the answer.
