Question
4. Used a Scale factor of ⅔ to dilate a circle with radius of 18cm. What is radius or original circle?
Answers
GPT 3.5
To determine the radius of the original circle, we need to multiply the scaled radius by the reciprocal of the scale factor.
The scale factor is ⅔, so the reciprocal is 3/2.
Therefore, the radius of the original circle is:
18 cm * (3/2) = 27 cm
The scale factor is ⅔, so the reciprocal is 3/2.
Therefore, the radius of the original circle is:
18 cm * (3/2) = 27 cm
