Problem 1, part (a)
<h3>Answer: False</h3>
For instance, 200 feet in real life can be reduced to scale down to say 2 inches on paper. So we have a reduction going on, and not an enlargement.
====================================================
Problem 1, part (b)
<h3>Answer: true</h3>
This is because a scale drawing involves similar polygons. This is true whenever any dilation is applied.
====================================================
Problem 2
I'm not sure how your teacher wanted you to answer this question. S/he didn't give you any numbers for the side lengths of the polygon. The angle measures are missing as well.
Answer:
(4,3)
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the midpoint add the end points and divide by 2
P(2,5) S ( sx, sy) and the midpoint is and H (3,4)
X coordinate
( 2+ sx) /2 = 3
Multiply each side by 2
2+sx = 3*2
2+sx = 6
Subtract 2
sx = 4
Y coordinate
( 5+ sy) /2 = 4
Multiply each side by 2
5+sy = 4*2
5+sy = 8
Subtract 5
sy = 3
The end point is
(4,3)
4rt33 or 4 times the square root of 33
4 = the square root of sixteen, so the square root of 16 times the square root of 33 = the square root of 628
