How does a scale factor change the size of a figure?

The scale factor can change how big or small a figure is, though it will still be similar. For example, a triangle with two sides measuring 3 & 3 (isosceles) are scaled in a factor of 6 (becoming larger).

3 x 6 = 18

The new triangle will have the sides measuring 18. Even though the triangles are not congruent, they are similar.

Hello!

The scale factor shows how much a figure is dilated. For example, if you have a square that has an area of 4, and it is dilated by a scale factor of 2, its area will become 8, or with a scale factor of 1/2, it will become 2/

I hope this helps!

Find the volume of a cone with radius 28 and height 44.
Brut [27]
The volume formula for a cone is V = 1/3 pi r^2 h.  We have everything we need to find the volume. V = 1/3 pi 28^2* 44.  Doing that math and leaving it in terms of pi you have that the volume is 11,498.67 pi units cubed.  If you multiply pi in, the answer would be 36,123.06 units cubed.

Answer:

  • a = 144
  • b = 67

Step-by-step explanation:

When a transversal crosses parallel lines, the interior same-side angles are supplementary. That means ...

  a° and 36° are supplementary, so

  a = 180 - 36 = 144

and

  b° and 113° are supplementary, so

  b = 180 -113 = 67

_____

The bases of this trapezoid are parallel, as indicated by the right-pointing arrow on each one. The left- and right-ends of the trapezoid are lines between the parallel bases that meet the requirement for the marked angles next to each one to be supplementary.
