You can put this solution on YOUR website! given:
parallelograms
one of them has and
the other has and to find
since sides going and , we have rectangles and
we know that not all rectangles are similar (if the proportions are different, they are not similar)
but in this case, we assume they similar; so, their sides are proportional
then we have:
......cross multiply
