To determine the ratio, we need to know the formula of the area of an hexagon in terms of the length of its sides. We cannot directly conclude that the ratio would be 3, the same as that of the ratio of the lengths of the side, since it may be that the relationship of the area and length is not equal. The area of a hexagon is calculated by the expression:
A = (3√3/2) a^2
So, we let a1 be the length of the original hexagon and a2 be the length of the new hexagon.
A2/A1 = (3√3/2) a2^2 / (3√3/2) a1^2
A2/A1 = (a2 / a1)^2 = 3^2 = 9
Therefore, the ratio of the areas of the new and old hexagon would be 9.
The answer is -1....................

This is the answer I got
Step-by-step explanation:
JK / KL = MN / NP 6 / 4 = 18 / 12
Now u cross multiply. if both numbers are equal, they are similar. In this case, they are similar. 6 x 12 = 4 x 18
72 = 72
though the two corresponding sides of the triangles mentioned are proportional (proportionality being 1:3 ) but they need not be similar
for similarity either the third corresponding sides must be proportional or the included angle between the two proportional sides must be equal
