Question

are these shapes similar?
(left parallelogram with vertices labeled, sides 48 mi, 40 mi, 40 mi, 48 mi; right parallelogram with vertices s, r, q, t, sides 33 mi each)
options: yes, no

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the condition for similar shapes

Similar shapes have equal corresponding angles and proportional corresponding sides.

Step2: Check the side - length ratios

For the first parallelogram with side lengths \(40\) mi and \(40\) mi (assuming it's a rhombus as all sides are \(40\) mi), and the second parallelogram with side lengths \(33\) mi and \(33\) mi (also a rhombus). The ratio of the side lengths is \(\frac{33}{40}
eq1\).

Step3: Conclusion

Since the side - length ratios are not equal, the shapes are not similar.

Answer:

no
