A proportion is an equation that relates two equal ratios. For example: =
Find the length of TQ by cross multiplying 10 W X Q 6 R 15 ? (6)(15) = (10)(TQ) 90 = (10)(TQ) T S Z Y TQ = 9
Mixing up the order of one ratio in a proportion 8 11 = 16 B 22 M - 12 L 24 N A C
Ratio of perimeters 4 A B 8 Q R P = 8 + 6 + 8 + 6 3 P = (2 x 8) + (2 x 6) C D 6 P = 4 + 3 + 4 + 3 Perimeter = 28 P = (2 x 4) + (2 x 3) T S Perimeter = 14
Perimeter of LMN = ? MN :BC = 18 : 24= 3 : 4 = 3 : 4 M perimeter :PERIMETER 18 L = 16 + 24 + 30 = 70 PERIMETER N B = 16 210 = 4(perimeter) 24 A perimeter = 52.5 30 C
How large is the frame? = 2 : 15 = 4 : 30 small : LARGE 4 in = 2(6) + 2(4) = 20 in perimeter 6 in = = 300 2P 30 in P = 150 in
