Problem 1, part (a)
<h3>Answer: False</h3>
For instance, 200 feet in real life can be reduced to scale down to say 2 inches on paper. So we have a reduction going on, and not an enlargement.
====================================================
Problem 1, part (b)
<h3>Answer: true</h3>
This is because a scale drawing involves similar polygons. This is true whenever any dilation is applied.
====================================================
Problem 2
I'm not sure how your teacher wanted you to answer this question. S/he didn't give you any numbers for the side lengths of the polygon. The angle measures are missing as well.
Answer:
Phil is 23
Step-by-step explanation:
Add 14 to 9 and you get 23. So then you subtract 9 from 23
As shown in the figures given :
For Figure 1 : perimeter = 8 units [As can be seen in the figure]
For figure 2(with 2 octagons) : perimeter = 8 × 2 - 1 = 15 units [since 1 side is common ]
For figure 2(with 3 octagons) : perimeter = 8 × 3 - 2 = 22 units [since 2 sides is common ]
If one more octagon is added
then perimeter = 8 × 4 - 3 = 29 units [since 3 sides will be common ]
