Question

parallelogram EFGH is similar to parallelogram WXYZ. What is the length of line WZ? Write the proportion of corresponding sides​

Answer 1

Answer:

$WZ=6\ in$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional and its corresponding angles are congruent

In his problem

$\frac{WZ}{EH}=\frac{WX}{EF}$

substitute the given values

$\frac{WZ}{3}=\frac{10}{5}$

solve for WZ

$\frac{WZ}{3}=2$

$WZ=3(2)=6\ in$
