Answer:

Scale Factor is: When you divide the old shape by the new shape (explanation is here)

Step-by-step explanation:

When you have 2 shapes (lets say Y is the old shape and F is the new shape) you would divide the old shape (Y) by the new shape (F)

Another example: lets say shape F is 12 cm and shape Y is 7 cm (F being the old and Y being the new shape) you would divide 12 and 7 to get the answer to that problem

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

<em>72 omelets</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

If the whole stick of butter is cut into 6 pieces, and you can use one of those 6 pieces of butter per omelet, you can make 6 omelets with one stick of butter. Now, you have 12 sticks of butter, and you can make 6 omelets with each. 12 x 6= 72. I believe u can make 72 omelets in all.

Hope this helps dear!!

Answer:

a. Inscribed angle = <WXY

b. Minor arc = arc(XY)

c. VWX

d. m(VWX) = 180°

e. m<VUW = 110°

Step-by-step explanation:

a. The angle, <WXY has its vertex on the circumference of the circle. Therefore, it can be referred to as an inscribed angle of the circle with center U.

Inscribed angle = <WXY

b. Arc(XY) is a minor arc because it is smaller than half of circle with center U.

Minor arc = arc(XY)

c. A semicircle is half of a full rotation for a circle. From the diagram, a semicircle is VWX

d. m(VWX) = Half the rotation of a full circle = 180°

e. m<VUW = arc(VW) (measure of central angle = measure of arc)

m<VUW = 110° (Substitution)
