Question

Quadrilaterals ABCD and EFGH are similar. If the perimeter of the quadrilateral ABCD is equal to 4y² what is the perimeter of the quadrilateral EFGH?

Answer 1

Answer:

Below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Similar figures have the same size but not necessarily the same size.

The respective sides will be in the same ratio in a similar figure.

So from the information given you can't say what the measure of the perimeter of quadrilateral EFGH is. All you can say is the ratio of the perimeters is the same as the ratio of the respective sides. If the ratio is 1:2 for example then the perimeter of EFGH is 2*4y^2 = 8y^2.

Answer 2

Answer:

Can't be determined.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the fact that the quadrilaterals are similar:

Corresponding sides are in proportion and

Corresponding angles are congruent.

We can't create a proportion, so there's nothing else that we can determine.
