Question 1117721: Assume quadrilateral ABCD is similar to EFGH. The lengths of the sides of ABCD are 2, 5, 7, and 10. If CD : GH equals 1 : 4, what is the perimeter of EFGH?

CD and GH are corresponding sides; the scale factor is 1:4. So the perimeter of EFGH is 4 times the perimeter of ABCD: 4(2+5+7+10) = 48.
