[4.08] A park has 2 bike trails in the shape of similar quadrilaterals. Trail A has side lengths of 90m, 108m, 120m and 132m. The shortest side of Trail B is 45m. Luis rides his bike around Trail A once and Tara rides her bike around Trail B twice. Who rode the longest distance and by how much? Show all work for credit.
 
so we can tell any side of trail A : B = 2 : 1
the perimeter of tail A : the perimeter of trail B = 2 : 1
Perimeter of A= 90+108+10+132=450m
perimeter of B =450/2=225m
if Tara rides her bike around Trail B twice.The total distance is 225x2=450m
450m =450m
they both rode 450m
