The scale factor between the two triangles can be found by comparing the corresponding side lengths.
For example, the corresponding sides are:
9 and 6 (scale factor of 6/9 = 2/3)
9 and 6 (scale factor of 6/9 = 2/3)
12 and 8 (scale factor of 8/12 = 2/3)
Therefore, the scale factor between the two triangles is two-thirds.
Which could be the scale factor of the following similar figures?
Two triangles, one with side lengths 9, 9, and 12, the other with side lengths 6, 6, and 8, are shown.
