Question

are these shapes similar?

Explanation:

Step1: Recall similarity criteria

Two polygons are similar if their corresponding angles are equal and corresponding - side lengths are in proportion.

Step2: Check angle - equality

The shapes appear to be parallelograms (as opposite sides are equal). Since opposite angles of a parallelogram are equal, and we assume that the corresponding angles of the two parallelograms are equal.

Step3: Check side - length proportion

For the first parallelogram with side lengths \(29\) cm each, and the second with side lengths \(24\) cm each. The ratio of the side lengths of the two parallelograms is \(\frac{29}{24}
eq1\). The side - lengths are not in the same proportion.

Answer:

no
