Given data:

Side of first figure (a1) = 12 cm

Side of second figure (a2) = 30 cm

Now, The perimeter of first figure,

P1 = 4 a1

= 4 x 12

= 48

The perimeter of second figure,

P2 = 4 a2

= 4 x 30

= 120

Ratio of the perimeters,

[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{P1}{P2}=\frac{48}{120} \\ \text{ = }\frac{2}{5} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Now, The area of first figure

A1 = a1 x a1

= 12 x 12

= 144

The area of second figure,

A2 = a2 x a2

= 30 x 30

= 900

The ratio of the areas,

[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{A1}{A2}=\frac{144}{900} \\ \text{ = }\frac{6}{25} \end{gathered}[/tex]
