OpenStudy (oaktree):

Are they similar?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it is the same shape just bigger *

OpenStudy (oaktree):

So they're similar.

OpenStudy (oaktree):

So if the bases are 4/10, then the heights are x/17.1 --> then x=6.84, so the area is 4(6.84) = 27.36

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im thinking 17.1 comes from the area of the bigger shape but how did you get 6.84
