Question 589272: Trapezoid pqrs and trapezoid wxyz shown below are similar. What is the perimeter of trapezoid wxyz? ...........p to q is 9m, q to r is 12 m, r to s is 9m, s to p is 6m.........whats is the perimeter of wxyz? x to y is 8
Answer by KMST(5328) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
The perimeter of pqrs is 9m + 12m + 9m +6m = 36m
Sides qr and xy are corresponding sides, and their lengths are 12m and 8 (in mystery units)
The ratio of sides of wxyz to pqrs is 8/12m, so the ratio of their perimeters is the same, and the perimeter of wxyz is

The perimeter of wxyz is 24 in whatever units the length of side xy was given.
