Question

uvwx ~ adcb. find cd and uv.
write your answers as decimals or whole numbers.
cd =
uv =

Explanation:

Step1: Find similarity ratio

$\text{Ratio} = \frac{WX}{AD} = \frac{3}{36} = \frac{1}{12}$

Step2: Solve for CD (corresponds to VW)

$CD = VW \div \text{Ratio} = 4 \div \frac{1}{12} = 4 \times 12 = 48$

Step3: Solve for UV (corresponds to BA)

$UV = BA \times \text{Ratio} = 18 \times \frac{1}{12} = 1.5$

Answer:

$CD = 48$
$UV = 1.5$
