I'm not sure how to work this one out.
I tried dividing 112/6 then 112/4
19. Tell whether the pair of polygons is similar. Explain why or why not
1ST POLYGON IS PQ-8FT, QR-13FT, RS-8FT,
2ND POLYGON IS TU-5.2FT, UV-2.4FT, VW-5.2FT
My answer is 8/13=5.2/2.4 = 67.6/19.2
8/13=3.2/2.4=41.6/19.2
So answer no?
Not sure if my equation set up right
