Answer 2

Please refer to the file attached

A , B and C are similar to each other

Explanation:

Let us analyse the Figure A :

Base = 2 units

Height = 1 units

shorter slant height =
`√(1^2+1^2) = √(2)`

Figure B

Base = 2 units

Height = 1 units

shorter slant height =
`√(1^2+1^2) = √(2)`

Figure C :

Base = 3 units

Height = 1.5 units

shorter slant height =
`√((1.5)^2+(1.5)^2) = (1.5)√(2)`

Hence we see that the three figures are similar to each other as the ratio of three sides of A to those of B is 1

and the ratio of three sides of A to those of c is 1.5
