Question

Kyra is using rectangular tiles of two types for a floor design. A tile of each type is shown below:

Which statement is correct?

The two tiles are not similar because segment SP is to segment SR is 4 : 7 and segment MJ is to segment ML is 1 : 3.

The two tiles are similar because segment PQ is to segment QR is 4 : 3 and segment JK is to segment KL is also 4 : 3.

The two tiles are similar because segment SR is to segment ML is 7 : 4 and segment PQ is to segment JK is also 7 : 4.

The two tiles are not similar because segment PQ is to segment QR is 7 : 4 and segment JK is to segment KL is 4 : 3.

Answer 1

D is the answer

Explanation:

The ratios aren't the same, the ratios must be the same.

Answer 2

4th answer because the ratios are not the same. The ratios need to be the same. 1:2 and 2:4 ratio is the same because the fraction 1/2 is the same as 2/4. So, 3:4 ratio is the same as 9:12 because 3/4 is the same as 9/12. However 7:4 ratio or 7/4 is not the same as 4/3. So they are not similar.
