4. Television sets used to come with an aspect ratio of 4:3 (width is 4 units and height is 3 units). Since broadcast channels in the United States are now broadcasting in 16:9, most newer sets come with a 16:9 aspect ratio. Your brother believes that since you can rewrite the ratio 16:9 as 4^2:3^2, that means a 4:3 television set is similar to a 4^2:3^2 television set. Is this true? What argument would you use to clarify your or your brother’s thinking? What are the dimensions of a television set that would be similar to the 4:3 set?
