Given that the figures are similar polygons, the ratio of their ratios should be equal to the square of the ratio of their circumference. If we let x be the lateral area of the smaller cylinder then,
(x/210π) = (24π/60π)²
The value of x from the equation is,
x = 33.6π
Thus, the area of the smaller cylinder is equal to 33.6π mm².
To factor quadratic equations of the form ax^2+bx+c=y, you must find two values, j and k, which satisfy two conditions.
jk=ac and j+k=b
The you replace the single linear term bx with jx and kx. Finally then you factor the first pair of terms and the second pair of terms. In this problem...
2k^2-5k-18=0
2k^2+4k-9k-18=0
2k(k+2)-9(k+2)=0
(2k-9)(k+2)=0
so k=-2 and 9/2
k=(-2, 4.5)
Ok
So when you multiply by a fraction just multiply top by top and bottom by bottom
So top by top is 2 by 4 so 8
And bottom by bottom is 3 by 5 which is 15
So answer is 8/15
