Explain why the two figures below are similar. use complete sentences and provide evidence to support your explanation. figure abcde is shown. a is at negative 3, 1. b is at negative 1, 3. c is at 3, 3. d is at 2, 0. e is at negative 1, negative 1. figure fghij is shown. f is at 3, negative 1. g is at 4, 0. h is at 6, 0. i is at 5.5, negative 1.5. j is at 4, negative 2.

answer: we will use similar property.

explanation:

since, if two figure are similar then the ratios of their corresponding sides are equal.

in the given figure , in pentagon abcde, vertices a,b,c,d and e are given so the sides are obtained with the of distance formula which is unit

so, with of this formula , ab=   2√2,bc=4, cd= √10, de=√10 and ea=2√2

similarly, fg=√2, gh=2, hi=1.58114,ij= 1.58114 and jf=√2

since, here,

thus, these two shapes are similar.

for ex: the reciprocal of 3/4 is 4/3. it is the opposite.

reciprocal definition:

a mathematical expression or function so related to another that their product is one; the quantity obtained by dividing the number one by a given quantity.
