Answer:

Scale Factor states that the ratio that you get when you divide corresponding side lengths of similar figures.

Given: Triangle ABC is congruent to Triangle DEF.

Similar figures have corresponding angles that are equal and corresponding sides that are equal.

To find the scale factor,

you need to find the ratio between the corresponding sides of the triangle.

now, you can multiply each side of one triangle by the same number to get the sides of the other triangle.

∴ The number is the scale factor, that is what we are trying to find.

How do you identify the information that is given to you that you dont need for solving a problem?

When reading a question, you need to be aware of the numbers presented and the facts. You need to pay attention to the question - what, when, where, how, why or how much. What is being asked in the question is always your clue. Unnecessary information will be eliminated once you understand the question.

Simple example from a Business book:

Jessica Fernandez, manager of Subway, had a bank balance of $5382.12 on March 1. During March, she deposited $60,375.82 received from sales, $3280.18 received as credits from suppliers, and $75.53 as a county tax refund. She paid out $27,282.75 to suppliers, $4280.83 for rent and utilities, and $12,252.23 for salaries and miscellaneous. How much did Fernandez deposit in March?

Answer:
$60,375.82 (sales) + $3280.18 (credits) + $75.53 (refund) = $63,731.53
Fernandez deposit $63,731.53 in March.

The question immediately lead you to the sentence that is the key to the answer.
It is pretty obvious but try to recognize the important facts from the rest.
The question did not ask about Jessica's balance on March 1 or did not ask about how much she pay out. You can immediately eliminate that those information are not necessary to the problem being asked. The question is how much did she deposit in March. You need to find the sentence that points out the answer - During March, she deposited $60,375.82 received from sales, $3280.18 received as credits from suppliers, and $75.53 as a county tax refund. List all the numbers and add them together and you will come up with the figures she deposited. It is just a simple question but it presented the technique for the elimination process of unnecessary facts. It is not "we cannot see the answer" but the truth is we cannot see and understand the question.

Winston can drive a total of 248 miles on Monday. He drove 70 fewer miles in the morning that he did in the afternoon. How many
Nookie1986 [14]
To find the answer,we can set an equation:

Let the time he used to drive in the afternoon be y miles.

Time used in the afternoon = y
Time used in morning = y - 70
Total time used = 248

The value of y:

y + (y - 70) = 248
2y-70 = 248
2y = 248+70
2y = 318
y = 318/2
y = 159

Therefore, he droved 159 miles in the afternoon.

Hope it helps!
