Euclid used a somewhat different parallel postulate in trying to avoid the notion of the infinite. He observed that when two parallel lines are intersected by a third line, called a transversal, then if you measure two angles formed by these three lines, on the same side of the transversal and between the parallels, they will add to (that is, they will be supplementary). Such angles are called same-side interior angles<span>:</span>
Ratio of their bases =
Ratio of their altitudes =
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
For first rectangle, it was given that
Base 1 = 12 inches
Altitude 1 = 6 inches
For the second rectangle, it was given that
Base 2 = 10 inches
Altitude 2 = 5 inches
Ratio of their bases is given by the ratio of the base of the first rectangle to the second one.
Ratio of their altitudes is given by the ratio of the altitude of the first rectangle to the altitude of the second rectangle.
Ratio of their bases =
Ratio of their altitudes =
