Prove that the two circles shown below are similar.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well i wish this was something i was good at

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but i'm going to try

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Why y cant?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

kk thnx 4 trying!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well of course there not the same size and there not at the same spot but math is never THAT easy

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so what are your options?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

this is written

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what are the options

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what i just said

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No options this is not Multiple choice lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok so i hate these types were you have to write it in

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i am horrible at graphs..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ya ikr

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im good at plotting

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im not

OpenStudy (anonymous):

:/ well then...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well this isint really a plotting thing so's not going to be that easy

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ikr...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

anyway....WAIT I THINK I KNOW!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you guys tag people you know might be good @ this

OpenStudy (anonymous):

uh moderates lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but i think i know it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

only one on im boned :(

OpenStudy (anonymous):

c and e both have points at diffrent spots find out what the point are at like if we had a d it would be 3,5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Uh idk if thats correct ah leme see on my side

OpenStudy (anonymous):

they want similar o_o

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What r u good @ i can ask you another question maybe

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im good at plotting

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ah then i need nothing with ploting srry

OpenStudy (anonymous):

XD ok then i really cant help with this question becuase i have no idea what to do srry :(

Well one circle is 4_ units all the way around and the other is 3 units all the way around! They are similar because the difference is bout 1 apart..that's all I know but here's someone who is good at this. @iPwnBunnies @Venny

Well you can find the ratio of the radii of both the circles. From the graph you can see that circle E has a radius of 3, and C has a radius of 4. If we do a ratio of E to C, the ratio of the radii is 3:4. Now lets find the ratio of the diameters, which is the same thing as 2*r, from the graph or algebraically we can find that E has a diameter of 6 and C has a diameter of 8. 6:8 is the same as 3:4 so the ratio of radii and diameter of the circles are the same. Lastly you can find the area or circumference of these circles too see if that too has a ratio of 3:4. If that also has a ratio of 3:4, then they are similar
