AveGali [126]

Answer:

Their sides must be in the same ratio and their angles must be equal.

Step-by-step explanation:

If two polygons are similar their sides must be in the same ratio and their angles must be equal.

e. g. -

If ABCDEF  and GHIJKL be the two polygons,

then,

\frac{AB}{GH} = \frac{BC}{HI} = \frac{CD}{IJ} = \frac {DE}{JK} = \frac {EF}{KL} = \frac{FA}{LG}

and,

∠ABC = ∠GHI ; ∠BCD =∠HIJ ; ∠CDE = ∠IJK ; ∠DEF =∠JKL ; ∠EFA =∠KLG;

∠FAB = ∠LGH .

If the weight of a package is multiplied by 5/7 the result is 40.5 pounds. Find the weight of the package.
ololo11 [35]
Well, it would become 5/7x=40.5. Divide both sides by 5/7, so it is 40.5 * by the reciprocal of 5/7 (7/5). The answer is 56.7 pounds.
