Find whether the given pair of
Answer to Problem 6PPS
Similar with scale factor 9:8.
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Formula Used:
Two solids are similar if they have the same shape and the ratios of their corresponding linear measures are equal.
Calculation:
The two solids are cuboid.
The ratio of the lengths of the cuboids is
The ratio of the width of the cuboids is
The ratio of the height of the cuboids is
= 9:8
Since the ratios of the corresponding measures is equal and both are cuboid , so the solids are similar.
Since the ratio of the corresponding sides is not 1:1 , the cuboids are not congruent.
Hence,
The cuboids are similar with scale factor 9:8.
