the figures are similar. give the ratio of the perimeters and the ratio of the areas of the first figure to the second.

@e.mccormick

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

Did you find a ratio of the given sides?

OpenStudy (loser66):

18/16= 9/8

OpenStudy (anonymous):

my options are 10/9 and 11/10, 10/9 and 81/64, 9/8 and 11/10, 9/8 and 81/64 @Loser66

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

Yep. That is for linear measure. For square measure, square the ratio! (And like I hinted before, the rule applies to other dimensions as well. So a 7th dimension would have a volume that was to the 7th power... but we would not be able to comprehend seeing it. And I am only bringing up 7 dimensions to teas Loser66 because he objected to my bringing up 3!)

OpenStudy (loser66):

aha... you are teasing me, ok, I won't let it go free. let see.

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

hehe

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well which one of these are the right answer?

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

The ratios can go either way. 8/9 pr 9/8 mean the same as a ratio of sides.

OpenStudy (loser66):

9/8 what 's else? I give it already. but have to torture the guy who dare teasing me, ok?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but there is two answers to each..

OpenStudy (loser66):

@e.mccormick she said that her options are above, not 8/9 pal.

OpenStudy (loser66):

just 9/8

OpenStudy (anonymous):

my 9/8 options come with 11/10 or 81/64.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ooh okay.

OpenStudy (loser66):

sorry, my bad, I am wrong.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can i get one more question in?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well poooo.

OpenStudy (loser66):

9/8 and 81/64 since \[(\frac{9}{8})^2 = \frac{81}{64}\]. am I right @e.mccormick

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

Yep!

OpenStudy (loser66):

hey, that is 2 dimension as you wish.

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

Want to see the 7th dimension? =P

OpenStudy (loser66):

heheh..forgive you by quickly respond. ok show me

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

Oh, sure... he wants to see me take those to the 7th power! \[\left(\frac{9}{8}\right)^7=\frac{4782969}{2097152}\]Really huge ratio at that dimensional volume!

OpenStudy (loser66):

hahahaa.... you rascal.....
