Given square:
Perimeter = 4 * side length = 4 * 3 = 12 units
Area = side length^2 = 3^2 = 9 square units
Dilated square:
Side length = 3 * 4 = 12
Perimeter = 4 * side length = 4 * 12 = 48 units
Area = side length^2 = 12^2 = 144 square units
Therefore, the perimeter of the given square is 12 units and its area is 9 square units.
The perimeter of the dilated square is 48 units and its area is 144 square units.
The square below is dilated by a scale factor of 44. Find the perimeter and area of the square below, as well as the perimeter and area of the dilated square. Express your answers as whole numbers, decimals, or fractions in simplest terms (no mixed numbers). Figures are not necessarily drawn to scale.
