Answer:

Yes, the polygons are similar.

Step-by-step explanation:

A similar polygon is a polygon that shares the same scale factor as another polygon. A scale factor is a number you can multiply each side by to get a similar figure,


Step 1:

Divide a few of the sides. You do not need to divide every side to find the ratio, but do at least 2 or 3 to guarantee that the scale factor remains the same throughout the sides. Let’s divide a few pairs of sides.

27/18=1.5

30/20=1.5

21/14=1.5

Step 2:

To really be safe, even though we can clearly tell this is a similar figure, is we can multiply each side on the right figure by 1.5, our scale factor, and see if we generate the sides on the left figure.

18*1.5=27

20*1.5=30

14*1.5=21

And this is why the polygons are similar :)

The value of y varies directly with x and y=3 when x=-6. Find y when x=1
Iteru [2.4K]
Hi, ok all you need to do is use the direct variation formula which is= y/x=y/x so you will replace your numbers by each value which get us to = 3/-6=y/1 so you cross multiply which gives us 3=-6y you divide 3 by -6 and that is the value of y, thank you for reading hope it helps ;)
