To find the scale factor, we need to divide the length of the final hypotenuse by the length of the original hypotenuse.
Scale factor = final hypotenuse / original hypotenuse
Scale factor = 2.1 cm / 14 cm
Scale factor ≈ 0.15
Therefore, the scale factor is approximately 0.15.
The hypotenuse of a triangle was 14 cm and the hypotenuse of the final triangle was 2.1 cm what is the scale factor
