We are tasked to solve the three angles given that we have the measurements of the sides such as
a = Zack to Rachel distance
b = Rachel to Maddie distance
c = Maddie to Zack distance
a =3
b =2.5
c =4
Solving the angles we need to use Law of Cosines:
cos A = 2.5² + 4² -3² /2*2.5*4
A = 48.59°
cos B=3² + 4² - 2.5² / 2*3*4
B = 38.625°
C=180 - 48.59° - 38.625°
C= 92.79°
The three angles are 48.59°,38.63° and 92.79°.

Answer:
The scale factor is 4.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Scale factor from ∆RST to ∆XYZ = side length of ∆XYZ / corresponding side length of ∆RST
Thus:
XY corresponds to RS
XY = 45
RS = 10
Therefore:
Scale factor = 45/10 = 4.5
Scale factor from ∆RST to ∆XYZ = 4.5
