OpenStudy (danieldjpon3):

ok geez my brain

OpenStudy (danieldjpon3):

welp I'll try

OpenStudy (danieldjpon3):

ok

OpenStudy (danieldjpon3):

I'll try wish me luck :P

OpenStudy (harmabe91113):

rip

OpenStudy (danieldjpon3):

ikr

OpenStudy (danieldjpon3):

just compare the radius of the circles by choosing two places from each and if they are equal then they are similar

OpenStudy (danieldjpon3):

in the small circle, i choose the green line as the radius and that is equal to the small red line below.. Let's look at the big circle now: the radius is 5 units from the point (4,4) to (8,4) and when we apply Pythgorean's theorem, we find other radius to be 5 again

OpenStudy (danieldjpon3):

so 2/5 =2/5 : they are similar

OpenStudy (danieldjpon3):

they should have 2/5 ratio: if you draw a line in a small circle for example, 5/2 times of its length should be equal to that of the big one, the easiest way to do it is to choose the radius because you can draw it using the center and find the length easily

OpenStudy (danieldjpon3):

Done

OpenStudy (danieldjpon3):

Ez

OpenStudy (danieldjpon3):

My brain is still in one piece

OpenStudy (danieldjpon3):

:D

OpenStudy (harmabe91113):

good

OpenStudy (danieldjpon3):

:)

OpenStudy (harmabe91113):

green line? red line?

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

Aren't all circles similar?

OpenStudy (harmabe91113):

no

OpenStudy (danieldjpon3):

'__'

OpenStudy (danieldjpon3):

lol

OpenStudy (danieldjpon3):

i gtg bye

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

Similar pretty much means same shape and does NOT mean congruent

OpenStudy (danieldjpon3):

ttul tomorrow

OpenStudy (harmabe91113):

rip

OpenStudy (danieldjpon3):

ye

OpenStudy (danieldjpon3):

ik

OpenStudy (danieldjpon3):

Can i have a medal?

OpenStudy (harmabe91113):

im still confused on how your answer is explained but sure

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

Congruent means same shape AND size

OpenStudy (danieldjpon3):

ok

OpenStudy (danieldjpon3):

ty @harmabe91113

OpenStudy (danieldjpon3):

pce out and gl man

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

you got your medal

OpenStudy (danieldjpon3):

Yup :)

OpenStudy (danieldjpon3):

Ty guys

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

:-)

OpenStudy (danieldjpon3):

I typed everything up top

OpenStudy (danieldjpon3):

look up and you'll see alot of text

OpenStudy (danieldjpon3):

welp i gtg pce, im so tired and i got a basketball game tomorrow so ye

OpenStudy (danieldjpon3):

Bye!

OpenStudy (harmabe91113):

rip

OpenStudy (harmabe91113):

ima go this kid fell in the water by my enclosure

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

Circle "B" has a radius of 2 (it goes from -1 to -3) Circle "A" has a radius of 5 (4 to -1 =5)

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

I'd say the proportionality for B to A is simply 2 : 5

OpenStudy (harmabe91113):

or am i crazy? like I just saw this black kid fall in my enclosure?

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

Is that what the question asks? (Are these 2 circles similar?)

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

What exactly does the question say?
