Kyra is using rectangular tiles of two types for a floor design. A tile of each type is shown below.
Which statement is correct? The two tiles are not similar because segment SP is to segment SR is 5 : 1 and segment MJ is to segment ML is 2 : 3. The two tiles are similar because segment PQ is to segment QR is 1 : 3 and segment JK is to segment KL is also 1 : 3. The two tiles are similar because segment SR is to segment SP is 3 : 2 and segment ML is to segment MJ is also 3 : 2. The two tiles are not similar because segment PQ is to segment QR is 1 : 6 and segment JK is to segment KL is 1 : 3.
HELP PLEASE ?
first find the dimensions (lengths) of each side of both tiles |dw:1385590104979:dw|
HOW YOU DO THAT ?
@DemolisionWolf
take the points they give you and find the distance from one point to the next point. so I'll do this side: |dw:1385591031958:dw| has points (2, 8) and (2, 2) so the x value changes 0, but the y values changes by 6. so the distance is 6 |dw:1385591094597:dw|
