How would you work out The perimeter P of similar triangles varies directly as the length of a side S If P equals 18 when S equals 4 what is the value of P when S equals 6?

S is increased from 4 to 6: a multiple of 6/4 = 1.5
So P, which is directly proportional to S, increases from 18 to 18*1.5 = 27

You are given that triangle mnp triangle xyz line mp equals 8cm line xz equals 12cm the perimeter of triangle xyz equals 80cm what would be the perimeter of triangle mnp?
It is necessary to mention that the two triangles are similar.Let the perimeter of the triangle MNP be x cm.Since the triangles XYZ and MNP are similar triangles,8/12 = x/80 (multiply both sides by 80)640/12 = x53.3333... = x53 3/9 = x53 1/3 = xThus, the perimeter of the triangle MNP is 53 1/3 cm.
What is true about the area of similar triangles when the sides are increased by a factor of two?
When you multiple the area of the small triangle by four it equals the area of the large triangle.

Top polygons abcd and afge are similar ad equals 12 and ae equals 6 if the perimeter of abcd is 54 what is the perimeter of afge?

Polygons abcd and afge are similar ad equals 12 and ad equals 12 if af equals 6 if the perimeter of afge is 28 what is the perimeter of abcd?
56 (: When we say polygon abcd is similar to polygon afge, they already told you which are the lines that are similar. ab:af=bc:fg=cd:ge etc. Lines ad and af are not similar in length and therefore cannot be used to find perimeter of polygon abcd even though the perimeter of polygon afge is given.
Polygons abcde and jklmn are similar the perimeter of polygon abcde is 48 in the perimeter of polygon jklmn is 54 in if NJ equals 6 find ea?
ea = 5, 1 over 3 inches

Polygons abcd and afge are similar ad equals 12 and ae equals 6 if the perimeter of abcd is 54 what is the perimeter of afge?
A+=14 * * * * * Not sure what the above answer means. But whatever it is, it is not the correct answer to this question! ae is half of ad so the second figure has the linear dimensions of the second are half that of the first. Therefore, the perimeter is half ie 27 units.
