Answer 10

G to H, if i count this right; is -3 over and 6 up

L to M is its counterpart is -2 over and 3 up

Answer 11

pretty sure its B because the sides arent proportional might be wrong but yes

Answer 12

is -3/6 equal to -2/3 ?

Answer 13

no wait no it is not

Answer 14

since the ratio of moving isnt the same between them; they aint similar are they; so its either B or D at this point

Answer 15

b right?
