option 1: 2
option 2: 3
Option 3: 4.5

Answer 1

3 × 3 → 9

--------- = ---------

1.5 × 3 → 4.5

Explanation:

Answer 2

The unknown length, x, in the smaller quadrilateral is 3 cm

Solution:

Given that,

The proportion can be solved to find the unknown length , x, in the smaller quadrilateral

Given proportion is:

`(x)/(1.5) = (9)/(4.5)`

We have to find the value of "x"

From given proportion,

`(x)/(1.5) = (9)/(4.5)`

Cross multiply the numerator of left side fraction with denominator of right side fraction

Multiply the numerator of right side fraction with denominator of left side fraction

Solve for x

`x * 4.5 = 9 * 1.5\\\\4.5x = 13.5\\\\x = (13.5)/(4.5)\\\\x = 3`

Thus unknown length, x, in the smaller quadrilateral is 3 cm
