Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

For 2 figures to be similar, the ratio of their corresponding must be the same, as well as their proportion. The simplification of their ratio gives us the scale factor of their corresponding sides. Also, their corresponding angles are congruent.

Looking at polygon LMNO and WXYZ, let's set the ratio of their corresponding side against each other to see if they would be equal to each other.

Thus, we have:

LM/XY = ON/WZ = MN/WZ = LO/ZY

35/10 = 35/10 = 63/18 = 63/18

It would give us a scale factor of 3.5

They are similar.

The answer is:

YES

LMNO ~ WXYZ

Scale factor = 3.5
