Question

Please help me it would mean a lot!! due right now. Please show work thank youuuu

Answer 1

area of A'B'C'D' = 18.4 units²

Explanation:

given 2 similar figures with

ratio of corresponding sides = a : b , then

ratio of areas = a² : b²

here ratio of sides = 5 : 2

ratio of areas = 5² : 2² = 25 : 4

let x be the area of A'B'C'D' , then by proportion

`(25)/(115)` =
`(4)/(x)` ( cross- multiply )

25x = 460 ( divide both sides by 25 )

x = 18.4

area of A'B'C'D' = 18.4 units²
