If a similarity transformation with a scale factor of 0.5 maps ΔABC to ΔMNO, such that vertices M, N, and O correspond to A, B, and C, respectively, then
Given AB = x, BC = y, and CA = 2x, you can write
Since OM = 5, you can find x: OM=x=5. Then AB=x=5.
<span> as we knw CA maps to OM. scale factor is 0.5 then </span> <span>O = 0.5*AC OM = 0.5*2x
5 5= </span> 0.5*2x 5=1x<span>5 = x so AB =5 hope it helps</span>
