Question

Compare the original figure to the enlarged figure.

Answer 1

Answer:

All the options are correct apart from the last one

Step-by-step explanation:

• Scale factor is the ratio of corresponding sides

Scale factor = 6.5 / 3.25  

• Yes

Scale factor = 3.25 / 6.5

• Yes

Scale factor = 3 / 1.5  

• Yes

Scale factor = 1.5 /3  

• Yes

Scale factor = 1.5 / 3.25  

• No, as it is the ratio of sides of the same rectangle

Answer 2

Answer:Which ratios can be used to find the scale factor? Check all that apply.

yes!!!Scale factor = StartFraction enlarged over original EndFraction = StartFraction 6.5 over 3.25 EndFraction

NO!!Scale factor = StartFraction enlarged over original EndFraction = StartFraction 3.25 over 6.5 EndFraction

Yes!!!Scale factor = StartFraction enlarged over original EndFraction = StartFraction 3 over 1.5 EndFraction

Scale factor = StartFraction enlarged over original EndFraction = StartFraction 1.5 over 3 EndFraction

Scale factor = StartFraction enlarged over original EndFraction = StartFraction 1.5 over 3.25 EndFraction
