3. What is the scale factor of Figure B to Figure A?

Mathematics
1 answer:
xxMikexx [17]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

From the diagram, figure B was enlarged to obtain figure A.

The two figures are therefore similar.

The corresponding sides are in the same proportion. That constant value of the proportion is called scale factor.

It is given by:

k =  \frac{image \: length}{corresponding\:object \: length}

Figure B is the image of A

k =  \frac{10}{4}  =  \frac{25}{10}  = \frac{21.5}{8.6} =   2.5

Therefore the scale factor is 2.5

Quadrilateral ABCD in the future below represents a scaled-down model of a walkway around a historic site. Quadrilateral EFGH re
marysya [2.9K]
I believe this is the question: "Quadrilateral ABCD in the figure below represents a scaled-down model of a walkway around a historic site. Quadrilateral EFGH represents the actual walkway. ABCD is similar to EFGH. Two irregular similar quadrilaterals ABCD and EFGH are drawn. AB measures 5 inches, BC measures 4 inches, CD measures 4 inches and AD measures 3 inches. EF measures 45 feet. What is the total length, in feet, of the actual walkway?"
We should determine the ratio(proportionality) of the two similar quadrilaterals.  Since AB corresponds to EF, AB=5, EF=45, we know that the side lengths of EFGH is 45/5=9 times those of ABCD. The perimeter of ABCD=5+4+4+3=16 feet, so the perimeter of EFGH, the actual pathway, is 16*9=144 feet.

If you know the 7x8=56 how can you use the Commutative Property of Multiplication to find the product of 8x7?
boyakko [2]

Answer:

The communicative property for multiplication states that the order of the multiplicands and can be swapped and the resulting product stays the same.

So

A * B = B * A

So if

7*8=56

then the commutative property says

8*7=56 as well since you can swap the order of the terms on the left and not change the result.

This property is true for addition and multiplication. It does not hold for subtraction or division.

Hope that makes sense and helps. (:
