Answer to Problem 3CYU

The figures are not similar by Theorem of Similar Polygon.

Explanation of Solution

Given:

The given figure is as follows.

  Geometry, Student Edition, Chapter 7.2, Problem 3CYU

Calculation:

Two polygons are similar if and only if their corresponding angles are congruent and corresponding side lengths are proportional.

Step 1: Compare corresponding angles.

Notice that both figures are rectangles.

Since all angles of a rectangle are right angles and right angles are congruent, corresponding angles are congruent.

Step 2: Compare corresponding sides:

  QRWX=94

And,

  NQWZ=1810=95

Since, QRWXNQWZ , corresponding side lengths are not proportional.

Therefore, the figures are not similar by Theorem of Similar Polygon.
