the cylinders shown below are similar.

what is the ratio of their side lengths?

1 answer

To find the ratio of the side lengths of the two cylinders, we can compare the height of Cylinder B to the height of Cylinder A.

Let the height of Cylinder A be represented by "h" and the height of Cylinder B be represented by "2h".
The ratio of their side lengths would be:

Ratio = Height of Cylinder B / Height of Cylinder A
Ratio = 2h / h
Ratio = 2

Therefore, the ratio of their side lengths is 2:1.
