The volumes of two similar figures are given. The surface area of the smaller figure is given. Find the surface area of the larger figure. V = 27 in3 V = 125 in3 S.A. = 63 in @Directrix

Directrix (directrix):

If two solids are similar, the square of the scale factor of the two solids is equal to the ratio of any two corresponding area measurements of the solids.

Directrix (directrix):

First, we will get the scale factor by taking the cube root of 27/125

Directrix (directrix):

That is 3/5. So, (3/5)^2 = 63/x Find x

Directrix (directrix):

Did you get 175 ?
