Step-by-step explanation:
This is the type of problem that you just have to do a bunch of times until you get it right -- I don't think there's anything I can tell you that'll help you immediately. Ask for your teacher for more exercises of this sort or look it up online.
Good luck!
1 it’s the most educated guess.
To answer this question, you need to know that a scale factor is the relationship between one dimension of the shape.
Because the information given to us is a two-dimensional measurement, you will need to consider that when getting the answer.
The ratios of the areas of the triangles is 3/5 x 3/5 or 9/25.
To determine the area of the larger triangle, you will solve the following equation using the information you know. x is the area of the larger triangle.
9/25x = 576; solve for x by dividing both sides by 9/25
x = 1600 square inches
The area of the larger triangle is 1600 square inches.
