Question 1008891: if polygon A and polygon B are similar regular polygons,what will be the measure of the apothem of polygon A if the area of polygon B is thrice the area of polygon A,perimeter of polygon B is twice the perimeter of polygon A,and the apothem of polygon B is 3 in. Found 2 solutions by ikleyn, ise:Answer by ikleyn(52775) (Show Source):
It is impossible for similar polygons to have the ratio of areas 3 and the ratio of perimeters 2.
Good problem for April, 1.
---------------------------------------------- comment from student: madam im sorry but I didn't notice that i did not change the type of lesson,it suppose to be "test" not geometry.

My responce. Probably, they test whether you know basic facts on similar polygons, areas and perimeters.
