To determine the scale factor used to create the copy of the triangle, you need to find the ratio of the lengths of corresponding sides in the original triangle and the copy.
The scale factor can be calculated using the following formula:
\[ \text{Scale Factor} = \frac{\text{Length of side in copy}}{\text{Length of corresponding side in original}} \]
Without the actual numerical lengths provided for each triangle, I cannot compute the exact scale factor. However, you can follow these steps using the lengths:
- Choose a pair of corresponding sides from both triangles.
- Divide the length of the side from the copy by the length of the side from the original.
- Repeat for at least one more pair of corresponding sides to ensure consistency.
After performing these calculations, you should be able to identify one of the scale factors provided in your options. If you can provide the lengths, I can help you calculate it.
