Tell whether the pair of polygons is similar. explain why or why not. (3 points) i get the general idea of this but i’m having trouble finding the ratio and scale factor.

The pair of polygons are not similar.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the concept of similarity, "The two figures are said to be geometrically similar if the ratio of their largest sides and smallest sides gives same numerical value".

For example: If two figures say figure 1 and figure 2 has their largest sides as 12 units and 6 units, then ratio is,

Similarly, if their smallest sides are 4 units and 2 units respectively. Then, ratio is,

So, figure 1 and figure 2 are similar.

But in the given problem, the ratio of largest sides is,

And ratio of smallest side is,

The ratios are different. Thus, the pair of polygons are not similar.

Step-by-step explanation:

In geometry, similarity between to figures, refers to a proportion. Between both figures there's a ratio that make bigger one from another, that ratio is a constant number for all sides, otherwise it won't be proportional, and not similar.

In this case, we don't have proportional sides, because the longer side has a reason of 2.5, and the smaller sides have a reason of 3.33. We can find these reasons by dividing:

So, the absence of a constant ratio means that they are not similar. The 8 side must be equal to 6ft, that way parallelograms would be similar becaur 6/2.4=2.5

1)is not similar since corresponding sides are not in the same ratio

2)are similar since corresponding sides are in the same ratio and corresponding angles are equal

d) by the cross product property, ab^2 = bc multiplied by ad

step-by-step explanation:

we are given

in the given triangle abc

angle a is 90° and segment ad is perpendicular to segment bc

we can see that

triangle(abc) and triangle(abd) are similar because they have common side and same angle (90 degree)

so, triangles(abc) and abd are similar

since, they are similar

so, the ratio of their sides must be equal

we get

now, we can cross multiply

and we get

so, this could be step to prove it
