Answer:

The scale factor for area is found by squaring the scale factor for length. Thus the scale factor for area is s2. If this is reversed, a method is provided for solving the problem being investigated. The scale factor for area is 2.

You multiply the area by the scale factor twice. Here is an example: if we have a rectangle that has a length 3 and a height of 4 and the scale drawing with a scale factor of 2, how many times bigger is the scale drawings area? The original shape is 3 by 4 so we multiply those to find the area of 12 square units.

hope it helps!!!
