Are the polygons similar? if they are, write a similarity statement and give the scale factor. the figures are not drawn to scale.
a. abcd ~ klmn; 7.2: 1.8
b. abcd ~ klmn; 3: 1.8
c. abcd ~ nklm; 3: 5.4
d. the polygons are not similar.

The answer is (D). The polygons are not similar.

Step-by-step explanation:  we are given two polygons which are parallelograms, having opposite sides of measurements 7.2 units, 3 units and 5.4 units, 1.8 units. We are to check whether the polygons are similar or not.

We have  

For the polygons to be similar, both these ratios must be equal which is the required scale factor. So, the given polygons are not similar.

Thus, (D) is the correct option.

The sides of both the polygons are not in the same ratio. Hence, it is not similar to each other.

Two polygons are given.

We need to check the similarity between the two polygons.

If the ratio of the corresponding sides of the polygons is in proportion, then the polygons are similar to each other.

Therefore,

AB/MN = 7.2/5.4 = 1.3333

BC/ML = 3/1.8 = 1.6666

Thus, the sides of both the polygons are not in the same ratio. Hence, it is not similar to each other.
