Question

The rectangle on the right is a scaled copy of the rectangle on the left. Identify the

Answer 1

Answer:

Scale factor = $\frac{1}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given question is incomplete; find the question in the attachment.

Scale factor = $\frac{\text{Dimension of image}}{\text{Corresponding dimension of preimage}}$

Scale factor = $\frac{\text{Dimension of image rectangle B}}{\text{Corresponding dimension of preimage rectangle A}}$

From the figure attached,

Length of rectangle B = $\frac{20}{3}$

Length of rectangle A =  20

Scale factor = $\frac{\frac{10}{3}}{10}$

                    = $\frac{\frac{10}{3}}{10}$

                    = $\frac{1}{3}$

Therefore, image rectangle A is dilated with by a scale factor of $\frac{1}{3}$.
