Answer 1

You have 2 quadrilaterals that are similar ABCD and QRST
So you know that:
AB = QR
BC = RS
CD = ST

Answer 2

yes

Answer 3

The chart gives the values of the sides of the second quadrilateral so you need to set up a ratio to find the factor. So for each side:
\[\frac{ AB }{ QR } = Factor\]
\[\frac{ BC }{ RS } = Factor \]
Now do the same for the rest

Answer 4

Side AB is given to equal 3 inches and Side QR in the chart is given to equal 12 inches so plugging that in you get the first factor. Do the same with the other values you have.

Answer 5

ok now what ?

Answer 6

Solve the rest of them and match them up. Show your work.

Answer 7

im confused :(

Answer 8

You have all the sides given. Use them as I did above and you will find the factors

Answer 9

did you hear the joke about 193? GOOGLE IT

Answer 10

i cant be seeming to find the factors

Answer 11

\[AB = 3\]\[BC = 4\]\[CD = 4\]\[DA = 6\]

\[QR= 12\]\[RS = 1\]\[ST = 8 \]\[TQ = 9\]

Answer 12

Use what you know to find the factors. You must use the example i showed you above

Answer 13

ok and to find the factors i divide ?

Answer 14

Correct you divide one side of the first quadrilateral by that of the equal corresponding side of the second quadrilateral.

Answer 15

A shown above.

Answer 16

so for exaample ab and qr so i divide 12divided by three and get 4

Answer 17

ok so do goes to 0.25?

Answer 18

d*

Answer 19

Actually you may have been doing it right where the second quadrilateral is divided by the first to get 4.

Answer 20

so d goes to four ?

Answer 21

Because if you multiply the 3 by your scale factor 4, you get 12 which is the side of the 2nd quadrilateral side.

Answer 22

Correct

Answer 23

\[\frac{ QR }{ AB } = Factor = 4\]
\[\frac{ RS }{ BC }=Factor = ?\]
\[\frac{ ST }{ CD } = Factor = ?\]
\[\frac{ TQ }{ DA } = Factor = ?\]

Answer 24

Now do the same for the rest.

Answer 25

ooooooooooo ok i think i got it now so

for the answers:

a=0.25
b=1.5
d=4
c=2

are these the correct answers?

Answer 26

Incorrect. A = 0.25 lets try it out Which is not side TQ
