Question

The coordinates of the vertices of two rectangles, Rectangle A'B'C'D' and Rectangle P'Q'R'S' are given below.

Rectangle A'B'C'D' – A(-4, 4), B(2, 4), C(2, 0), D(-4, 0)
Rectangle P'Q'R'S' – P(-8, 8), Q(4, 8), R(4, 0), S(-8, 0)

Jake scaled both the rectangles about their centers to create two congruent rectangles A′B′C′D′ and P′Q′R′S′.

By which factor did he most likely scale Rectangle A'B'C'D' and Rectangle P'Q'R'S'?

Answer 1

Rectangle A'B'C'D' by 1 by 2 and Rectangle P'Q'R'S' by 3 by 4 to create congruent rectangles of dimensions 2 x 3 units

Rectangle A'B'C'D' by 3 and Rectangle P'Q'R'S' by 2 to create congruent rectangles of dimensions 3 x 2 units

Rectangle A'B'C'D' by 1 and 1 by 2 and Rectangle P'Q'R'S' by 3 by 4 to create congruent rectangles of dimensions 9 x 6 units

Rectangle A'B'C'D' by 2 by 3 and Rectangle P'Q'R'S' by 3 and 1 by 3 to create congruent rectangle of dimensions 9 x 6 units

Answer 2

help plz @experimentX @HyperChemist

Answer 3

hm, lets see, scaling is making something to another equal size, so.

Answer 4

sorry, its just that you needed to graph everything and all. I tried.

Answer 5

no problem
