Question

Triangle B is the same shape as Triangle A with a scale factor of ſ. That means each side length is the side length of Triangle A. The perimeter of Triangle B is 30 cm.
Use the diagrams to help you write an equation to find the side lengths of Triangle A.
​

Answer 1

Answer:

that description is already wrong. you must have mistyped something here. please read your own problem description again and then try again. if each side length of triangle B is the side length of triangle A, then they do not only share the same shape (= angles), but they are identical, and the scale factor is simply 1.

I think what you mean is that every side length of B correlates to the side lengths of A by the factor f.

Step-by-step explanation:

what that means :

side a of A = f × side a of B

side b of A = f x side b of B

side c of A = f x side c of B

perimeter of A = f x perimeter of B

for any more details there has to be more information.
