Answer 1

Given:

△RST~△HIJ.

$\begin{gathered} \angle R=\angle H \\ \angle S=\angle I \\ \angle T=\angle J \end{gathered}$

Required:

To find the similarity ratio of △RST to △HIJ.

Explanation:

The similarity ratio of △RST to △HIJ is,

$\frac{ST}{JI}=\frac{RS}{HI}=\frac{RT}{HJ}$

Now

$\begin{gathered} \frac{4}{1}=\frac{8}{2}=\frac{8}{2} \\ \\ =4 \end{gathered}$

Final Answer:

The similarity ratio is

$\begin{gathered} \frac{4}{1}=\frac{8}{2}=\frac{8}{2} \\ \\ =4 \end{gathered}$
