Answer:

Explanation:

Ratios of perimeters is a one-to-one measure. From the figure on the left to the one on the right the ratio of the one-to-one measure is 45/25 which reduces to 9/5.

Area is a squared measure. Once we have the perimeter reduced (we do), we square those perimeter measures to find the area ratio.


((9)/(5))^2=(81)/(25)
