Answer:
part A) The scale factor of the sides (small to large) is 1/2
part B) Te ratio of the areas (small to large) is 1/4
part C) see the explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Part A) Determine the scale factor of the sides (small to large).
we know that
The dilation is a non rigid transformation that produce similar figures
If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional
so
Let
z ----> the scale factor

The scale factor is equal to

substitute

simplify

Part B) What is the ratio of the areas (small to large)?
<em>Area of the small triangle</em>

<em>Area of the large triangle</em>

ratio of the areas (small to large)

Part C) Write a generalization about the ratio of the sides and the ratio of the areas of similar figures
In similar figures the ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional and this ratio is called the scale factor
In similar figures the ratio of its areas is equal to the scale factor squared
<span>92.23 Gallons per day. Because you divide 645.6 by 7, so that you can calculate the daily usage. :) </span>
The area is length x width which means it would be 14 x 8
14 x 8 = 112 so the area of the rectangle is 112 square ft.
Answer:
<em>The coordinates of B are (-8,-4)</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Midpoint of a segment</u>
Given points A(xa,ya) and B(xb,yb), the coordinates of the midpoint M can be found knowing that:

Applying that relation in both axes separately, we can write:


Knowing the coordinates of the midpoint and A, we can find the coordinates of the other extreme B solving both equations for the required variable:


Plugging in the known values:


The coordinates of B are (-8,-4)
