Answer:  The correct option is (A) 6.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to find the scale factor of dilation from triangle ABC to triangle XYZ.

From the figure, we note that

The lengths of the sides of triangles ABC and XYZ are as follows :

AB = 5 units, BC = 4 units, AC = 3 units, XY = 30 units, YZ = 24 units and XZ = 18 units.

We know that

\textup{Scale factor}=\dfrac{\textup{length of a side of the dilated figure}}{\textup{length of the corresponding side of the original figure}}.

Therefore, for the given triangles, we get

\textup{Scale factor}=\dfrac{XY}{AB}=\dfrac{30}{5}=6.

Thus, the required scale factor of dilation is 6.

Option (A) is CORRECT.

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the scale factor k, find the ratio of corresponding sides

\frac{XZ}{AC} = \frac{18}{3} = 6

\frac{YZ}{BC} = \frac{24}{4} = 6

Hence the scale factor k = 6 → A

Answer:

• changing an interior angle to a reflex angle

Step-by-step explanation:

In order for the outline of the polygon to have a pair of sides that is concave (pointed inward, rather than outward), the corresponding interior angle must be a reflex angle. (It must measure more than 180°.) Draw one; you'll see.

What are scale drawings? can you give an example?
Alecsey [184]
Scale Drawings are drawings that are used to show the true size of something.
Scale drawings are most commonly used in maps, or in large scale drawings. These show the scale of something. It may show that 1cm is equivalent to 1km, which would allow someone to measure the map to see how far the distance it. It also allows a map to be made smaller, and less detailed- making it often easier to read.
Hope this helps :)
