Read Solution (Total 3)
-
- scale factor z d ratio of 2 lengths i.e., 21:28=7:8
ratio of perimeter (octagons) : 8a:8b=8*21:8*28=7:8
ratio of areas (octagons): (2+2sqrt(2))a^2:(2+2sqrt(2))a^2=7:8 - 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(1)
- area of a ocagon is a^2(2+2sqrt(2))
perimeter of a octagon is 8.a - 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(2)
- scale factor = 21:28 = 3:4
perimeter ratio 3:4
area ration = 9:16 - 7 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
