Answer:

AB=6 Units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following lengths of rectangle ABCD and its dilation A'B'C'D' respectively

  • A'B' = 15 Units
  • B'C' = 9.5 Units
  • BC = 3.8 units

We are to determine the length of AB. To do this, we first determine the dilation factor.

D$ilation Factor =\dfrac{B'C'}{BC} =\dfrac{9.5}{3.8} =2.5

Therefore:

\dfrac{A'B'}{AB} =2.5\\\\\dfrac{15}{AB} =2.5\\$Cross multiply \\ 2.5 AB =15 \\AB=15 \div 2.5\\$Therefore, AB=6 Units

A wire is first bent into the shape of a rectangle with width 5in and length 13in. Then the wire is unbent and reshaped into a t
MAXImum [283]
Total length of the wire = 2*13 + 2*5 = 26 + 10 = 36 in.

so length of each side of the triangle would be 36/3  = 12 ins.
