the sides fo two square are in the ratio 2:3 find the ratio of their perimeter and area
Answers
Answer:
The sides of two similar triangles are in the ratio 2:3, then the
areas of these triangles are in the ratio
Given that
Ratio of sides of similar triangles
3
We know that
If two triangle are similar, ratio of areas is equal to the ratio of
squares of corresponding sides.
Therefore,
(Side of triangle 1)
Area of triangle1
Area of triangle 2 (Side of triangle 2)
(2/3)2
=4:9
Case 1 Case 2
side of 1st square=2x. side=3x
Perimeter=4×side perimeter=4×3x=12x
=4×2x=8x
Area=Side×Side. Area= side×side
2x×2x=4x². 3x×3x=9x²
Therefore; ratio of there perimeter
8x/12x=2/3
2:3
Ratio of there area
4x²/9x²
4:9
If in the question it is asked to find ratio of perimeter and area differently then this should be the answer
