Question

Determine whether the figures are similar.
If so, determine the scale factor.
(i think it is c, but i'm not sure)

a. yes; scale factor = 4/7
b. yes; scale factor = 1/3
c. yes; scale factor = 2/7
d. no

Answer 1

well first if they are similar, then 4/7 will = 14/25.5

Answer 2

and to find the scale factor you can just take the fraction of either the numerator or the denominator it doesnt matter... so the scale factor would be either 4/14 or 7/25.5, either way you will get the same thing... you also must you the corresponding side to find the scale factor

Answer 3

make sense?

Answer 4

yes

Answer 5

cool :-)

Answer 6

so it's a?

Answer 7

Answer 8

ohh no, it is c... b/c 4/14 reduced is 2/7, and 7/24.5 reduced is also 2/7... so it is 2/7. :-)

Answer 9

oh ok :)
