Question

Consider the given solids with the dimensions shown. Which solids are similar? three cubes. Figure 1 has side lengths of 5 ft, figure 2 has side lengths of 7 feet, figure 3 has side lengths of 10 feet. Figures not drawn to scale A. only figure 1 and figure 2 B. only figure 1 and figure 3 C. only figure 2 and figure 3 D. all three figures

Answer 1

D. all three figures

Explanation:

A cube is a rectangular prism that has every edge equal in length to every other edge. This ratio of edge lengths holds for all cubes. Every cube is similar to every other cube.

Application

Cubes with edge lengths of 5 ft, 7 ft, and 10 ft will all be similar. Any pair of corresponding edges of different cubes will have the same ratio.
