24. Five separate regions along the Sam Andreas fault in the California have suffered damage
from a recent earthquake. For purposes of assessing payouts from insurance companies to
building owners, the five regions must be classified as to their damage levels. Expression
of the Damage in terms of relations will prove helpful.

Surveys are conducted of the buildings in each region. All of the buildings in each region
are described as being in one of three damage states: no damage, medium damage and
serious damage. Each region has each of these three damage states expressed as a
percentage (ratio) of the total number of buildings. Hence, for problem n=5 and m=3. The
following table summarize the findings of the survey team:
 Regions x1 x2 x3 x4 x5
xi1 - Ratio with no damage 0.3 0.2 0.1 0.7 0.4
xi1 - Ratio with medium damage 0.6 0.4 0.6 0.2 0.6
xi1 - Ratio with serious damage 0.1 0.4 0.3 0.1 0.0

Find the similarity relation R among three surveys data using cosine amplitude method.
