Question

Two similar quadrilaterals have corresponding sides measuring 10 ft. on Figure A
and 24 ft. on Figure B
. If another side on Figure A
is 8 ft. what would be the length of the corresponding side on Figure B
?(1 point)
ft.

Answer 1

Scale factor = 24/10 = 12/5. Multiply 8 by 12/5:

8 × 12/5 = 96/5 = 19.2

So the corresponding side on Figure B is 19.2 ft.
