To state: whether quadrilaterals ABCD, EFGH are similar or not
Answer to Problem 1CE
No, quadrilaterals ABCD, EFGH are not similar.
Explanation of Solution
In quadrilateral ABCD,
In quadrilateral EFGH,
Now take proportion of corresponding sides of quadrilaterals ABCD and EFGH.
Clearly, the sides of quadrilaterals ABCD and EFGH are not proportional.
Use the fact: If corresponding sides of two quadrilaterals are not proportional then the two quadrilaterals are not similar.
So, ABCD and EFGH are not similar.
