Answer:
D 5
Step-by-step explanation:
the same scaling factor s applies to all sides when transforming from the small to the large triangle.
x×s = x + 5
(x-2)×s = x +1
=> s = (x+5)/x
=> (x-2)×(x+5)/x = x + 1
=> x² + 3x - 10 = x² + x
=> 3x - 10 = x
=> 2x = 10
=> x = 5
Regular polygon area = n*side^2 / (4 * tan (180/n))
where "n" is number of sides
The formula is dependent on the side^2 term,
So, if we have an octagon that has sides 4 times as large, that means the area will be sixteen times larger.
side^2 = 4^2 = 16
So we multiply 25 cm^2 by 16 and we get
400 square centimeters.

Answer:
In the second step, the +16 should be -16
In the 3rd step, you should add 16 instead of subtracting 16
