Question

Given ABCD ~ EFGH , calculate the length of EF.

Answer 1

@Directrix

Answer 2

If ABCD ~ EFGH then the corresponding sides are in proportion.

AB is to EF as BC is to FG

Answer 3

A good tip: Flip the shapes so they look the same.

Answer 4

Yes

Answer 5

AB/x = BC/FG where x = EF

8/x = 15/7.5

8/x = 2/1

x = ? @dopegyal_

Answer 6

8

Answer 7

I did not get 8. Lemme check my work.

Answer 8

4

Answer 9

my options are 7,4,9,2 0.0

Answer 10

I'm stick with 4. This notion of flipping figures over so that they look the same -- I don't know about that.

Because the correspondence of vertices was given to us in the problem: Given ABCD ~ EFGH

@dopegyal_ How did you and the Crayon get 8?

Answer 11

8 is not an option. The work says 4 is the answer.

Answer 12

OK!:D thanks

Answer 13
