Two polygons are similar with the longest side of one 8 and the longest side of the other 10. find the ratio of the areas.

The ratio of the areas is

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

if two figures are similar, then the ratio of its areas is equal to the scale factor squared

and

the scale factor is equal to the ratio of its corresponding sides

Let

z------> the scale factor

In this problem we have

-------> scale factor

The ratio of the areas is equal to

answer:

it is general formula that is used to write value to its excet position

a11 a12 a13

a21 a22 a23

it is the example of order 2 by 3 matrix in this

a11 means value occur in 1 st row 1st column

a12 means value occurs in 1st row 2nd column

a13 means value occur in 1st row and 3rd column

a21 means value occurs in 2nd row and 1st column

a22 means value occurs in 2nd row and in 2nd column

a23 means value occurs in 2nd row and in 3rd column

a
