Answer:
Yes, the scale factor is 0.6 repeating, or 0.7.
Step-by-step explanation:
You find the scale factor by dividing the smaller sides by the corresponding larger ones.
12/18 = 0.6 repeating
14/21 = 0.6 repeating
16/24 = 0.6 repeating
These triangles could be similar by SSS or SAS or ASA I think since congruent angles are shown in both triangles as well.
<span>I think you know by now that I strongly encourage everyone to shoot a proper round and whatever the score is, to submit it to our Records Officer, Giles Conn. Think of it as an annual competition (a) to wear him out, and (b) to see if we can altogether, beat last year's tally. Also, for the outdoor season rounds, you can have a go at achieving the St Wilfred trophy. I've won it 3 years running (last year jointly with Terry Skinner), but they wouldn't let me keep it this time, sadly.</span>
The answer to this problem is 1/6.
