What is the multiplier used on each dimension to change one figure into a similar figure?
scale factor!
What scale factor doubles the size of a figure?
Depends what you mean by the "size" of the figure.To double the linear dimensions of the figure ===> Multiply the linear dimensions by 2.To double the area of the figure ===> Multiply the linear dimensions by sqrt(2). (1.4142)
The figure is reflected across the y-axis and dilated by a scale factor of 4?
It can be.
What is the difference between scale factor and scale ratio?
if two polygons are similar, then the ratio of the length of 2 corresponding sides is called a scale factor
What is a scale written as a ratio without units in simplest form called?
scale factor
The scale factor that doubles the size of a figure?
2
When you make a figure bigger or smaller using scale factor it is called?
Scale Factor
Multiplying the coordinates of all points of a figure in the coordinate plane by a scale factor to get a similar figure is called?
Scale factor
The scale factor that triples the size of a figure is?
it is called a outter figure shape
What is the multiplier used on each dimension to change one figure into a similar figure?
scale factor!
A transformation that proportionally reduces or enlarges a figure?
Scaling will proportionally reduce or enlarge a figure. The amount of scaling is given by the scale factor (greater than zero) If the scale factor is less than 1, the figure is reduced and it is sometimes called a contraction If the scale factor is greater than 1, the figure is enlarged, and it is called a dilation or enlargement. If a centre of enlargement is used, the distance of every point from the centre is multiplied by the scale factor. The scale factor can be negative in which case the distance to the new point is measured on the opposite side of the centre to the original point.
How can you find the scale factor from a smaller figure to the larger figure using the scale factor?
The two scale factors are reciprocals of one another.
How do you figure out the scale factor of a circle?
how do you find the scale factor of two circles
How does a scale factor effect the dimensions of a figure?
Each linear dimension is altered by a multiple which is the scale factor.
What is a scale factor that triples the size of a figure?
3
What decides if a figure enlarges or reduced?
The scale factor
How do you find the scale factor of dilation?
The scale factor is the ratio of any side of the image and the corresponding side of the original figure.
