whether the given pair of solids is similar or not

Answer to Problem 12PPS
The value of missing term w is 60 yd.
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Calculation:
In the first rectangular prism the length of the prism is 8 yd and the height of the prism is 6 yd.
In the second rectangular prism the length of the prism is w yd and the height of the prism is 20 yd.
Consider the two cones are similar.
The objective is to find the value of w.
To find the value of w use the property that two solid figures are similar if they have the same shape and their corresponding linear measurements are proportional.
Since the two rectangular prism are similar, so the corresponding linear measurements are proportional.
Thus,
Conclusion:
Therefore, the value of missing term w is 60 yd.
