First, let's find the ratio of the perimeters of the two figures.
Figure 1 perimeter = 26yd
Figure 2 perimeter = 6yd
Ratio of perimeters = 26/6 = 13/3
Next, let's find the ratio of the areas of the two figures.
Figure 1 area = 26^2 = 676 square yards
Figure 2 area = 6^2 = 36 square yards
Ratio of areas = 676/36 = 169/9
Therefore, the correct answer is:
A. 13/3 and 169/9
The figures below are similar.
Figure 1: 26yd Figure 2: 6yd
What are a) the ratio of the perimeters and b) the ratio of the areas of the larger figure to the smaller figure? The figures are not drawn to scale.
A. 13/3 and 169/9
B. 13/3 and 16/9
C. 16/3 and 169/9
D. 16/3 and 16/9

What is the correct answer
The correct answer is A. 13/3 and 169/9.
Are you sure
I apologize for the confusion. Let's recalculate the ratio of the areas of the two figures:
Area ratio = (26^2)/(6^2) = 676/36 = 169/9
Therefore, the correct answer is indeed A. 13/3 and 169/9. Thank you for your attention to detail.
Area ratio = (26^2)/(6^2) = 676/36 = 169/9
Therefore, the correct answer is indeed A. 13/3 and 169/9. Thank you for your attention to detail.
