On the attachment the first two questions.

anonymous · Answer

Is what I did correct?

anonymous · Answer

i think there is 5 similar triangles, i am not sure though

anonymous · Answer

For the first question, do you have to use the entire shape or just make the figures as large as possible

anonymous · Answer

just kidding that didn't make sense

anonymous · Answer

I put 24 cm squared for the first question so is that right?

anonymous · Answer

If you were to divide the area of the figure into 4 equal shapes, the area of each would be 27 but I don't know if you can make 4 shapes of that size that are similar to the original figure
