Question
the figure on the right is a scaled copy of the figure on the left. which side in the figure on the right corresponds to segment wy? what is the scale factor?
Step1: Identify corresponding sides in similar - figures
In similar figures, corresponding sides are in proportion. We need to match the vertices of the two similar quadrilaterals to find the corresponding side of segment WY.
Step2: Match vertices
Assume the left - hand quadrilateral is WXYZ and the right - hand quadrilateral is JKLI. By comparing the orientation and naming convention of similar figures, we can see that side WY corresponds to side JL.
