Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
They are also similar.
Both have 4 right angles. Both have 2 sets of parallel lines. Both have 4 equal sides.
But I think you are supposed to answer if figure 1 is similar to figure 2 and figure two is similar to figure 3 then by the transitive property, figure 1 is similar to figure 3.
Set up a ratio. But first convert the height of the puzzle to feet so we are comparing the same unit of measure.
STEP 1
convert 24 inches to feet
12 inches= 1 foot
24 inches= 2 feet
STEP 2
set up ratio.
= 2 feet/556 feet or 2:556
simplify both by 2
= 1 ft/278 ft or 1:278
ANSWER: 1/278 or 1:278 (can be written either way)
Hope this helps! :)
Answer:
.9
Step-by-step explanation:
If the number behind that place is 5 or greater than you round up one but if it is 4 or below than you keep the number the same.
Given that we assume that all the bases of the triangles are parallel.
We can use AAA or Angle-Angle-Angle to prove that these triangles are similar.
Each parallel line creates the same angle when intersecting with the same side.
For example:
The bases of each triangle cross the left side of all the triangle.
Each angle made by the intersecting of the the parallel base and the side are the same.
Thus, each corresponding angle of all the triangles are congruent.
If these angles are congruent, then we have similar triangles.
