Question

An illustration shows a 15 by 12 grid with 4 triangles and a parallelogram on it. Figure 1 is an isosceles triangle in the 3rd to the 4th rows, 6th and 7th columns. The base is 2 units and the perpendicular height is 2 units. Figure 2 is an inverse isosceles triangle, and extends from the top of the 3rd to the bottom of the 5th row, within the 10th and 11th columns. The base extends for 2 units and the perpendicular height is 3 units. Figure 3, a parallelogram, has the top side as 2 units on the top of row 6, columns 6 and 7. The bottom side is 2 units across the base of the 8th row, columns 3 and 4. Figure 4 is a triangle, extending from the top of the 8th row to the bottom of the 10th row, columns 7 to 9. The base is 3 units in length, and the perpendicular height is 3 units. Figure 5 is an isosceles triangle with the base as 2 units on the right side of 13th column, and the perpendicular height as 2 units.

Answer 1

Based on your description, we need to compare the features of Figure 1, which is described as an isosceles triangle with a base of 2 units and a height of 2 units, to the other figures to find a similar one.

1. Figure 1: Isosceles triangle, base = 2 units, height = 2 units.
2. Figure 2: Inverse isosceles triangle, base = 2 units, height = 3 units.
3. Figure 3: Parallelogram.
4. Figure 4: Triangle, base = 3 units, height = 3 units.
5. Figure 5: Isosceles triangle, base = 2 units, height = 2 units.

Figures with the same proportions or shape can be considered similar. Figure 1 and Figure 5 both have the same dimensions (base of 2 units and height of 2 units) and are both isosceles triangles.

Thus, Figure 5 is similar to Figure 1.
