Question

Show that the picture and board aren't mathematically similar (diagram below)

Answer 1

See below

Explanation:

If the figures were similar the corresponding sides would be proportional.

`(10)/(12)` =
`(8)/(10)` This statement would be true if the sides were proportional, but it is not true. Cross multiply.

10(10) ≠ (8)(12)

100≠96
