4. aizhalee

5. anonymous

you got it right though? what dont you understand?

6. aizhalee

I guessed on it :/ and got it right , but I want to know to do it correctly

7. aizhalee

8. anonymous

ok, so you know how the cordinates were (5,12) for S and (5'7) for P

9. sdfgsdfgs

10. aizhalee

Yes I see the points

11. anonymous

ok so what plus 7 gets you to 12?

12. anonymous

since that is the Y cordinate

13. aizhalee

5 +7 = 12

14. anonymous

!the last option is correct! why?

15. anonymous

ok so thats how you get 5

16. aizhalee

Ok whats next ?

17. anonymous

wait!

18. aizhalee

Thank you @sdfgsdfgs

19. anonymous

now you do the same for SR

20. aizhalee

@eninone B is correct,

21. aizhalee

Ok 12+0=2

22. anonymous

nooo

23. anonymous

cordinate S=what

24. aizhalee

5,12

25. anonymous

ok what is cordinate R?

26. aizhalee

9,12

27. anonymous

what plus 5 gives you 9

28. aizhalee

4

29. anonymous

so thats how you got the ratio 5:4

30. anonymous

do you get it now?

31. aizhalee

Yes I get it :D , so I just do it for MJ and ML

32. aizhalee

Thank you Im adding it in my notes

33. anonymous

yes, and that how you get the ratio for that too!!! good job and thanks for having pactients i didnt know how to explain it all in one piece

34. aizhalee

Thanks :) and you're very welcome

$similarity\ concepts\ says\ that \ two \ figures\ are\ similar\\ if \ the\ ratio\ of \ their\ corresponding\ sides\ are\ equal\ (constant).\\in\ the\ given \ fiqures \ only\ last \ statemet\ satisfy \ this \ condition.\\here,\ \frac{ SR }{ ML}=\frac{ 9-5 }{ 6-4}=\frac{ 4 }{ 2 }=\frac{ 2 }{ 1}\\ \frac{ PQ }{ JK }=\frac{ 9-5 }{ 6-4}=\frac{ 4 }{ 2 }=\frac{ 2 }{ 1 }\\ so\ last\ statement \ is\ correct!$

this solution is partially wrong. missed one line,. Option B is correct. overworked! time to go bed!
