Answer:
The answer is below
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Triangle A is attached in the image below.
The base of triangle A is 3 units and its height is 3 units. The area of a triangle is given as:
Area = (1/2) × base × height
Area of triangle A = (1/2) × base × height = (1/2) × 3 × 3 = 4.5 unit²
Area of the scaled copy = 72 unit²
Ratio of area = Area of the scaled copy / Area of triangle A = 72 unit² / 4.5 unit² = 16
Hence the scaled copy area is 16 times larger than that of triangle A.
b) For the scaled copy:
Area of the scaled copy = (1/2) × base × height = 72 unit²
base × height = 144
Since the base and height are equal
base² = 144
base = 12, also height = 12
Base of scaled copy = 12 = 4 × base of triangle A
Therefore the scale factor used is 4
so we know she has sculptures and paintings, if she sold twice as many paintings as sculptures, that means that for every 2 paintings, she sold 1 sculpture, so the paintings and sculptures are on a 2:1 ratio.
we know she sold a total of 57, so we'll need to split 57 in a 2:1 ratio, we'll simply divide the whole amount of 57 by (2+1) and distribute accordingly.
