In parallelogram HIJK, HI = 59.5 in, IJ = 34 in, JK = 59.5 in, and KH = 34 in.If parallelogram LMNP is similar to parallelogram HIJK, which side lengths could be the side lengths of parallelogram LMNP? A. LM = 178.5 in, MN = 34 in,NP = 178.5 in, PL = 34 in B. LM = 178.5 in, MN = 102 in,NP = 178.5 in, PL = 102 in C. LM = 62.5 in, MN = 37 in,NP = 62.5 in, PL = 37 in D. LM = 59.5 in, MN = 102 in,NP = 59.5 in, PL = 102 in

In parallelogram HIJK, HI = 59.5 in, IJ = 34 in, JK = 59.5 in, and KH = 34 in.If parallelogram-example-1

If the parallelograms are similar, the dimensions must be proportional.

If the smaller one has dimensios 59.5, 59.5, 34 and 34, so the larger can be:

178.5, 178.5, 102 and 102 (ratio 1:3)

Letter b
