It is not possible to determine the scale factor without knowing the dimensions of the larger and smaller rectangles.
it can have any demension
If the dimensions of the larger and smaller rectangles can be any value, then the scale factor can also be any value. Therefore, we cannot determine the scale factor without knowing the specific dimensions of the rectangles.
ten and five inches
To determine the scale factor between the larger rectangle and the smaller rectangle, we can divide the length of the larger rectangle by the length of the smaller rectangle.
Scale factor = length of larger rectangle / length of smaller rectangle
Scale factor = 10 inches / 5 inches = 2
Therefore, the scale factor used in the dilation of the larger rectangle to the similar smaller rectangle is 2.
Scale factor = length of larger rectangle / length of smaller rectangle
Scale factor = 10 inches / 5 inches = 2
Therefore, the scale factor used in the dilation of the larger rectangle to the similar smaller rectangle is 2.
