Answer: 0.5</h3>
This is equivalent to the fraction 1/2
==============================================================
Explanation:
The distance from A to B is 3 units. We can count out the spaces, or subtract the x coordinates of the two points and apply absolute value.
|A-B| = |-5-(-8)| = |-5+8| = |3| = 3
or
|B-A| = |-8-(-5)| = |-8+5| = |-3| = 3
We can say that segment AB is 3 units long.
--------------------------
The distance from A' to B' is 1.5 units because...
|A'-B'| = |-2.5-(-4)| = |-2.5+4| = |1.5| = 1.5
or
|B'-A'| = |-4-(-2.5)| = |-4+2.5| = |-1.5| = 1.5
The absolute values ensure the distance is never negative.
We can say A'B' = 1.5
---------------------------
Now divide the lengths of A'B' over AB to get the scale factor k
k = (A'B')/(AB)
k = (1.5)/(3)
k = 0.5
0.5 converts to the fraction 1/2.
The smaller rectangle A'B'C'D' has side lengths that are exactly 1/2 as long compared to the side lengths of ABCD.

Prove that a triangle with the sides (a − 1) cm, 2√a cm and (a + 1) cm is a right angled triangle.
Answer:
∆ABC is right angled triangle with right angle at B.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : Triangle having sides (a - 1) cm, 2√a and (a + 1) cm.
We need to prove that triangle is the right angled triangle.
Let the triangle be denoted by Δ ABC with side as;
AB = (a - 1) cm
BC = (2√ a) cm
CA = (a + 1) cm
Hence,
Now We know that

So;


Now;

Also;

Now We know that




[By Pythagoras theorem]

Hence, 
Now In right angled triangle the sum of square of two sides of triangle is equal to square of the third side.
This proves that ∆ABC is right angled triangle with right angle at B.
That would be A...they have to have a constant ratio
