The answer is Option A.
Scale Factors
If the Scale Factor IS 1, the polygon stays the SAME.
(If an equilateral triangle has a side length of 8 and the scale factor is 1, the sides will stay at 8)
If the Scale Factor is MORE THAN 1, the polygon's sides INCREASE depending on what the scale factor is.
(If a square has a side length of 3 and the scale factor is 4, the sides will increase to 12)
If the Scale Factor is LESS THAN 1, the polygon's sides DECREASE depending on what the scale factor is.
(If a square has a side length of 5 and the scale factor is 1/2, the side lengths will decrease down to 0.5)
Therefore each side length of the new triangle is 4 times shorter than the original (Option A)

Can anyone teach plsssss........................ Given that PR= 17cm and SR= 6cm.Find the length, in cm of TS. ​
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

9cm

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. Since PQST is a rectangle, ∠QST=∠QSR=∠90º. So triangle QSR is a right triangle.
  2. By the Pythagorean Theorem and that SR=6 and QR=10, we can say that 6^2+b^2=10^2. So, 36+b^2=100. And b^2=64 and b=8. So QS=8.
  3. Now we know that QS=PT=8.
  4. By the Pythagorean Theorem and that PR=17 and PT=8, we can say a^2+8^2=17^2. So, a^2+64=289. And a^2=225 and a=15.
  5. We know that TR=15 and SR=6 and TR-SR=TS, so 15-6=9.
