1) <u>Find the length of the diagonals of the greater rhombus</u>
NJ=9 units
XY=6 units
Find the the ratio
NJ/XY=9/6-------> 3/2
2) <u>Find the length of the diagonals of the smaller rhombus</u>
HS=6 units
ZC=4 units
Find the the ratio
HS/ZC=6/4-------> 3/2
so
NJ/XY=HS/ZC--------> the rhombus are similar
the scale factor is equal to ------> 3/2=1.5
measure greater rhombus =scale factor*measure smaller rhombus
measure greater rhombus =1.5*measure smaller rhombus
measure smaller rhombus=(measure greater rhombus/1.5)
therefore
<u>the answer is</u>
Yes , they are a scaled copies and the scale factor is equal to 1.5
