Question

A board game uses a triangular piece, measuring 3 inches on each side the travel version of the game uses a triangle in a proportional relationship to the original original. It measures 0.5 inches on each side identify the scale factor used to create the travel version of the piece.

Answer 1

1: board game: 1/6
2: Randee's problem: 2
3: 12, 4 with a height of 4
4: 4, 3
5: 5

Answer 2

man up here is right

Answer 3

To find the scale factor used to create the travel version of the piece, we can compare the corresponding sides of the two triangles.

The original triangle has sides measuring 3 inches each, while the travel version has sides measuring 0.5 inches each.

Therefore, the scale factor used is,

Scale factor = Length of travel version / Length of original

= 0.5 inches / 3 inches

= 1/6

Thus, the scale factor used to create the travel version of the piece is 1/6.
