Please help me guys . Check my answers

OpenStudy (jfruihvifjokp):

What is the measure of an exterior angle of a regular 11-sided polygon? Enter your answer in the box. Round to the nearest tenth of a degree. 32.7 °

OpenStudy (danjs):

yeah, the total exterior angle is 360, they are all the same in a regular one, so each is 1/11 th of the total 360 360/11

OpenStudy (ben00):

You can use calculator.

OpenStudy (jfruihvifjokp):

thanks can u help me with this one The dashed triangle is the image of the solid triangle. The center of dilation is (6,6)(6,6). What is the scale factor used to create the dilation? Enter your answer in the box.

OpenStudy (ben00):

Ok so i think the answer is correct.

OpenStudy (jfruihvifjokp):

thanks can yall help me with the other one

OpenStudy (ben00):

Give medal.

OpenStudy (danjs):

What was your answer for the scale factor?

OpenStudy (jfruihvifjokp):

i dont know this one

OpenStudy (danjs):

The center for dilation is at (6 , 6). This means all the distances measured from this point to all others in the figure will be scaled by some number.

OpenStudy (jfruihvifjokp):

+how do i find that number?

OpenStudy (danjs):

You see the top straight side goes from x=6 to x=-9, or a distance -15 in x direction...

OpenStudy (danjs):

The corresponding side on the scaled figure is x=6 to x=9, or a distance of +3 in x direction

OpenStudy (danjs):

To scale that -15 to +3 distances, you need to scale the larger by a factor of -1/5

OpenStudy (jfruihvifjokp):

so -13?

OpenStudy (jfruihvifjokp):

@DanJS

OpenStudy (danjs):

no, all "distances" from the point (6,6) to any point on the figure are multiplied by negative one fifth.
