Given rectangles lmno and pqrs, which statement explains a way to determine if the two figures are similar?
a. verify corresponding pairs of angles are proportional by translation.
b. verify corresponding pairs of sides are proportional by dilation.
c. verify corresponding pairs of angles are congruent by dilation.
d. verify corresponding pairs of sides are congruent by translation.

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Definition: Two rectangles are similar when they have corresponding sides proportional are proportional by dilation.

For example, rectangles with sides 3 cm, 4cm and 6 cm, 8 cm are similar, but rectangles with sides 3 cm, 4 cm and 6 cm, 10 cm are nor similar.

Since all angles in rectangle are always right angles, then options A and C are false (in terms of your question).

Option D is false too, because translation doesn't change the length, and in this case two rectangles are congruent.

Option B is true according to definition.

pay attention in your classes and concentrate the best thing you can do to raise your test scores is to pay attention when you're supposed to be learning the material: in class!

take good notes.

do your homework.

use mnemonics and other tricks.

do practice tests.

note: the best i know.

the correct answer is a) they believe they have a "just cause."

islamic terrorists justify their violent actions because they believe they have a "just cause."

every act of terrorism of islamic sects is done “in the name of allah”. that justifies their actions. islam people who commit those terrorist attacks are not afraid to die. that is why the attacks have horrible consequences. they know they are going to die and they are proud to do it because it is in the name of allah, so it is justified and is for a “good cause.”

since the very beginning of the conflict with israel, islam is fighting a “sacred war”, respecting the words stated in the qur’an. they fight against the domination of the western countries and to defend their occupied territories.
