Question

Randee draws these two triangles with lengths given in centimeters. What scale factor does she use to create the copy on the right from the original on
1 1/3
1/2
1 2/
2
900##

Answer 1

which one is it out of the options givin

Answer 2

choose one

Answer 3

To find the scale factor, divide the corresponding side lengths of the copy triangle by the original triangle.

For the first side length:
1 1/3 ÷ 1 = 4/3

For the second side length:
1/2 ÷ 1 = 1/2

For the third side length:
1 2/2 ÷ 2 = 5/2

For the fourth side length:
900 ÷ 900 = 1

So, the scale factor Randee used to create the copy triangle is: 4/3 : 1/2 : 5/2 : 1 or 8 : 3 : 5 : 2.

Answer 4

Based on the options given, the scale factor that Randee most likely used to create the copy on the right from the original triangle is 1:2 or 2.

Answer 5

Based on the options given, the most likely scale factor that Randee used to create the copy on the right from the original triangle is 1:2.
