Let's say you have two similar polygons and the ratio of their perimeters is 6:1. What is the ratio of corresponding sides?

1 answer:

7 0

Well if we had a four sided polygon with the sides of x1, x2, x3, x4. Where the perimeter is: (x1 + x2 + x3 + x4), A similar polygon will have proportional sides. Their sides would be > kx1, kx2, kx3, kx4.....sooo... The perimeter is: (kx1 + kx2 + kx3 + kx4) > k(x1 + x2 + x3 + x4) therefore the ratio is the same because the perimeter and sides are the same. So 6:1

Hope this helps!

Answer:

The scores in order from least likely to most likely is 8, 3, 4, and 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Calculate the probability of the spinner adding up to 1, 2, 3, 4, .... 8

You will get:

2 (1/16)

3 (2/16)

4 (3/16)

5 (4/16)

6 (3/16)

7 (2/16)

8 (1/16)

2. Given the scores from the problem, the probability of each number is 3 (2/16), 4 (3/16), 5 (4/16), and 8 (1/16).

3. With this, we can determine the scores in order from least likely to most likely is 8, 3, 4, and 5.
