Question

Problem 2 quadrilateral a has side lengths 6, 9, 9, and 12. quadrilateral b is a scaled copy of quadrilateral a, with its shortest side of length 2. what is the perimeter of quadrilateral b?

Answer 1

12

Explanation:

The perimeter of quadrilateral A is 6+9+9+12 = 36. The shortest side of B is 2/6 = 1/3 of the shortest side of A, so the perimeter of B will be 1/3 of 36, or 12.
