Answer:
Here's how to do it.
Step-by-step explanation:
The two triangles must be similar, that is, corresponding angles must be equal, as in the diagram below.
1. Find a corresponding pair of sides
Assume that ∆ABC is the original and ∆DEF is its scaled image.
Then, AB and DE are corresponding sides, with lengths of 8 and 12 units , respectively.
2. Set up a ratio
Ratio = side length in image/side length in original = 12/8
3. Simplify the ratio
The simplified ratio is the scale factor (SF).
SF = 12/8 = 3/2 = 1.5
The scale factor is 1.5.
Answer:
43 stitches.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given that each pant's leg has an opening with a circumference of 8.5 inches. It took 15 stitches to make 3 inches in width. We are asked to find the number of stitches required to make up the circumference.
Let us find stitches needed to make 1 inch by dividing 15 by 3.
Since 5 stitches make 1 inch, so to find stitches needed to make 8.5 inches, we will multiply 8.5 by 5 as:
Upon rounding to nearest stitch, we will get:
Therefore, 43 stitches will make up the circumference.
