How do you find a scale factor of a triangle?
To find the scale factor of two triangles, look first for one pair of corresponding sides--one side from the smaller triangle and the corresponding side from the larger triangle. Divide the larger side length by the smaller side length, and that quotient is your scale factor.
What is the scale factor used to dilate from small to big triangle?
You need numbers from the sides of the triangles. Take numbers from the corresponding (matching) sides, one number from the small triangle, and one number from the big triangle. Then divide the big number by the small number. The answer is the scale factor. Put another way, the scale factor is the number that multiplies the small triangle to create the large triangle.
How do you figure out the scale factor of a circle?
how do you find the scale factor of two circles
What is an isosceles triangle that has a base of 8 inches and legs measuring 12 inches How wide is the base of a similar triangle with legs measuring 36 inches?
the measure of the base in the similar triangle would be 24 inches because you are increasing by a scale factor of (3/1)
What is the dilation of 22 if the scale factor is 2.5?
The dilation of 22 with scale factor 2.5 is 55.The formula for finding a dilation with a scale factor is x' = kx (k = scale factor), so x' = 2.5(22) = 55.
