State whether the following quadrilaterals are similar or not:

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Two polygons of the same number of sides are similar if
all the corresponding angles are equal.
all the corresponding sides are in the same ratio (or proportion).
In quadrilaterals `ABCD` and `PQRS`,
`(AB)/(PQ) = (BC)/(QR) = (CD)/(RS) = (DA)/(SP) = 3/8`
Corresponding sides are in proportion.
But `/_A ne /_P; /_B ne /_Q`
Thus, corresponding angles are not equal.
No, Quadrilateral `ABCD` is not similar to Quadrilateral `PQRS`
