Answer:

Length = 18 in

Width = 15 in

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that the area of a rectangle is:

A = L * W

but L = 1.2 * W

A = 1.2 * (W ^ 2)

1.2 * (W ^ 2) = 270

(W ^ 2) = 270 / 1.2

W ^ 2 = 225

Therefore, W is equal to:

W = 225 ^ (1/2)

W = +/- 15, but only +15 makes sense

W = 15

Now for L:

L = 1.2 * 15

L = 18

A = 15 * 18 = 270 in ^ 2

Here is Triangle A. Lin created a scaled copy of Triangle A with an area of 72 square units. a. How many times larger is the are
PSYCHO15rus [73]

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
