The answer is 9.

To calculate this, we will use Galileo's square cube law, used to describe the change of the area or the volume of the shape, when their dimensions increase or decrease. The formula used for change of the area is
A_2= A_1 (\frac{l_2}{l_1} )^{2}
A₂ - the area after the change,
A₁ - the area before the change,
l₂ - the dimension after the change,
l₁ - the dimension before the change.


It is given:
l₁ = 1 cm
l₂ = 3 cm

Let's use this formula for the mentioned triangle:
A_2=A_1( \frac{l_2}{l_1}) ^{2}  =A_1( \frac{3}{1})^{2} =A_1*3 ^{2} =9A_1

Therefore, the area of the triangle was multiplied by 9.

A gardener uses a coordinate grid to design a new garden. The gardener uses polygon WXYZ on the grid to represent the garden. Th
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

A square

36 square yard.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following information:

W(3,3), X(-3,3), Y(-3,-3), and Z(3,-3)

So we need to graph those vertices and connect them in order.

(please have a look at the attached photo)

From the graph, it clear that the shape of the garden is a square.  

Then, we need to calculate the length of the four sides

<u>Find the length of the side YZ. </u>

The length of side YZ  =  3 + 3  =  6 yards  because point Y and Z are on the same line y = -3 so we just need to find the distance between their x coordinate

<u>Find the length of the side WZ.</u>

The length of side WZ  =  3 + 3  =  6 yards because point W and Z are on the same line x = 3 so we just need to find the distance between their y coordinate

=> the area of the square WXYZ:

= YZ*WZ

= 6*6

= 36 square yard.
