You can put this solution on YOUR website! Two polygons are similar with the longest side of one 8 and the longest side of the other 10. Find the ratio of the areas.
the area is the product or square of its side:
The ratio of sides is, 8:10 = 4:5
squaring it yields, 16:25
the ratio of the area is 16:25
