If it is isosceles, what does that tell you

OpenStudy (caozeyuan):

what is BC/KL, what is AC/JL, if you can get these questions, you should have the final answer

OpenStudy (jravenv):

I dont know how to get those though, I dont understand this concept

OpenStudy (caozeyuan):

lets strat from basics: isosceles means two wings the same length, ok?

OpenStudy (caozeyuan):

sp AB=BC, JK=KL

OpenStudy (caozeyuan):

understood? did not? anythign?

OpenStudy (caozeyuan):

I'll keep going, so similiar means you have correponding sides in same proportion, so the ratio is 2 becuase 5/2.5, so 4*2 is 8

OpenStudy (jravenv):

okay, so whats next?

OpenStudy (caozeyuan):

done, answer is 8

OpenStudy (jravenv):

Ohhh okay, sorry, its confusing
