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 answer is 9 (B)

Step-by-step explanation:

I got 9 because you have to plug in answer (7, 9, 11, 8) in each equation than add them both together. I first plugged in 7 for x in the equation 9x-5. I got 58. I plugged in 7 for x in the equation 5x+12 and got 47. When I added both the answers together I got 105. The answer was to low because SU has to be 133. I plugged in 9 for x in both equations then added them both and got 133 for SU. I hope this helps.

The answer is D because

60 times 5=300

20 times 8=160

25 times 9=225

33 times 10=330

Then add all of them and it gives you $1,015
