Question

Rectangle A and Rectangle B are similar. Rectangle A has side lengths of 16 and 8. Rectangle B has a side length of 32. What are the possible values for the length of the other side of Rectangle B? Select all that apply.

12
16
38
64

Answer 1

Triangle A and triangle B have a Similarity coefficient equal to 2 (32/16)

If 32 is the largest side therefore the other side is 16

If 32 is the smallest side so another side is 64

Answer : 16, 64

Answer 2

16，64

Step-The side with a side length of 32 may be the long side or the short sideby-step explanation，so there are two cases：

1、the long side: 16/8=32/X，X=16

2、the short side：16/8=X/32，X=64
