Answer:

If the two polygons are similar, then their sides are proportianal.

We see that sides in the larger polygon are two times as long as the sides of the smaller polygon.

So, if the larger polygon has a side length of 13, then the smaller polygon would have a side length of 13/2, or 6.5

Let me know if this helps!
