Answer:
4 2/3 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
When we have area, it is the related to the scale factor by the scale factor squared
Area large/ area of small = 49/9
Take the square root
sqrt(49/9) = 7/3
The scale factor is 7/3 large to small
The small side is 2 cm
large 7 x cm
-------- = ------ = -----------
small 3 2 cm
Using cross products
7*2 = 3x
Divide by 3
14/3 = 3x/3
14/3 = the large side
4 2/3 cm
