A quadrilateral’s smallest side measures 29 mm and its largest side measures 38 mm. A similar quadrilaterals largest side measures 95 mm. What is the measure of its smallest side?(1 point) mm
To find the measure of the smallest side of the similar quadrilateral, we can use the property of similar shapes that corresponding sides are proportional.
If the largest side of the first quadrilateral is 38 mm and the largest side of the similar quadrilateral is 95 mm, we can set up the following ratio:
38 mm / 95 mm = 29 mm / x
Cross multiplying, we get:
38 mm * x = 29 mm * 95 mm
x = (29 mm * 95 mm) / 38 mm
x ≈ 72.5 mm
Therefore, the measure of the smallest side of the similar quadrilateral is approximately 72.5 mm.
