Question
are these shapes similar? yes no
Step1: Check ratio of corresponding sides
For the first rectangle with sides 25 yd and 37 yd, and the second with sides 25 yd and 46 yd. The ratio of the longer - sides is $\frac{46}{37}$, and the ratio of the shorter - sides is $\frac{25}{25}=1$. Since $\frac{46}{37}
eq1$, the ratios of corresponding sides are not equal.
Step2: Apply similarity condition
Two rectangles are similar if the ratios of their corresponding sides are equal. Since the ratios of the corresponding sides of the two given rectangles are not equal, they are not similar.
