JKLM to WXYZ

JM = 9                ZW = 13.5
JK = 12               WX = 18

the scale factor is what u multiply the original shape to get the coordinates of the other shape.
13.5 / 9 = 1.5

9 * 1.5 = 13.5
12 * 1.5 = 18

so ur scale factor is 1.5 (because if u multiply 1.5 by the original shape, u get the new shape)

ella [17]

Answer:

When there are numbers like that next to the radical it means multiply. like this: 2<u>√9</u>. You would first figure out the square root. <u>Square root of 9</u> is 3. 2 times 3 is 6.

After you figure out those problems, you just need to put the number, x, and y in an equation with 2 unknowns.

HELP What is the area of this figure?
Mademuasel [1]
The correct answer is:  [B]:  "40 yd² " .
_____________________________________________________
First, find the area of the triangle:

The formula of the area of a triangle, "A":

A = (1/2) * b * h ; 

in which:  " A = area (in units 'squared') ;  in our case, " yd² " ; 

                 " b = base length" = 6 yd.  

                 " h = perpendicular height" = "(4 yd + 4 yd)" = 8 yd.
___________________________________________________
→  A = (1/2) * b * h = (1/2) * (6 yd) * (8 yd) = (1/2) * (6) * (8) * (yd²) ; 
                                                                 
                                                                   =  " 24 yd² " .
___________________________________________________
Now, find the area, "A", of the square:

The formula for the area, "A" of a square:

   A = s² ;

in which:  "A = area (in "units squared") ; in our case, " yd² " ;
                 
                 "s = side length (since a 'square' has all FOUR (4) equal side lengths);

 A = s²  = (4 yd)² = 4² * yd² =  "16 yd² "
_________________________________________________
Now, we add the areas of BOTH the triangle AND the square:
_________________________________________________
        →  " 24 yd²  +  16 yd² " ; 

to get:  " 40 yd² " ;  which is:  Answer choice:  [B]:  " 40 yd² " .
