Question

HELP ASAP!!!

consider the given solids which dimensions shown. Which solids are similar?

Answer 1

A

Explanation:

1 and 2

8/12 = 16/24 = 10/15

2/3 = 2/3 = 2/3

Same ratio, so similar

2 and 3

12/28 = 24/36 = 15/30

3/7 = 2/3 = 1/2

Ratio not constant, so not similar

Answer 2

Consider the ratio of corresponding sides, you would find out:

Option A is correct

Explanation:

Check figure 1 and figure 2: 8/12 = 16/24 = 10/15 = 1/3

=> they are similar.

Check figure 2 and figure 3 (or fig. 1 and fig. 3): Not satisfied.

Hope this helps!
