Answer:
- perimeter: 5/8
- area: 25/64
Step-by-step explanation:
You want the ratios (red to blue), of perimeter and area, given that corresponding sides have the ratio red to blue = 5 to 8.
<h3>Perimeter ratio</h3>
The ratio of perimeters is the ratio of corresponding side lengths:
red to blue = 5 / 8
<h3>Area ratio</h3>
The ratio of areas is the square of the ratio of corresponding side lengths:
red to blue = (5 to 8)² = 25 / 64

<em>Additional comment</em>
Ratios are customarily expressed in any of three equivalent forms:
- 5 to 8
- 5:8
- 5/8 "fraction" form
