Similar polygons only differ by a scaling factor. In other words, two polygons are similar if one is the scaled version of the other.
In particular, this implies that the angles are preserved, and the correspondent sides are in proportion.
These two polygons are both rectangles, so the angles are preserved. We must check the sides, and we have to check if the smaller sides are in the same proportion as the bigger sides.
So, the two rectangles are similar if the following is true.
In any proportion, the product of the inner terms must be the same as the product of the outer terms:
This is clearly false, and thus the two rectangles are not similar.
Answer:
a*b = 1/2
a/ b = 8/9
Step-by-step explanation:
a = 0.66666 and b = 0.75
To multiply it we write the decimal numbers in fraction form
a= 0.666666...
Multiply by 10 on both sides
10 a = 6.66666...
a = 0.66666...
Subtract the second equation
9a = 6
divide by 9 on both sides
so 0.6666 = 2/3
Now we convert 0.75 into fraction form
Multiply top and bottom by 100 to remove decimal
so 0.75 is 3/4
a= 2/3 and b = 3/4
The line through (a,b) with slope m is
y-b = m(x-a)
Here that's
y + 1 = (3/4) (x - 2)
Let's multiply by 4 to clear the fractions and distribute the constants,
4y + 4 = 3x - 6
Rearranging into standard form,
3x - 4y = 10
Check. The slope is 3/4, good. 3(2) - 4(-1) = 6+4 = 10 good
Answer: 3x - 4y = 10
Answer:
97km/h to 1dp
Step-by-step explanation:
47mins is 0.783 of an hour
76km/0.783 = 97.0212km/h
