Question

The pair of figures to the right are similar. what is the ratio of the perimeters and the ratio of the areas?

the ratio of perimeters is __
the ratio of the areas is __

Answer 1

the ratio of perimeters is 3/5

the ratio of areas is 9/25

Answer 2

the ratio of perimeters is 3/5

the ratio of areas is 9/25

Explanation:

first we divide the given sides of both figures

perimeter=side 1/side 2

=15/25

p=3/5

to find the ratios of the area

=(side 1/side 2)^2

=(3/5)^2

=9/25
