A scale factor in a number that changes the size of a shape by that scale examples: 1: if you have a square that is 1cm by 1cm and you increaseit by a scale factor of 3 the square would then be 3cm by 3cm 2: if you had a 2cm by 2 cm square and increase by a scale factor of 0.5 you'd get a 1cm by 1 cm square
Tautologically!
You increase the scale factor.
The area scale factor is the square of the side length scale factor.
Scale factor and perimeter are related because if the scale factor is 2, then the perimeter will be doubled. So whatever the scale factor is, that is how many times the perimeter will be enlarged.
1 shape cannot have a scale factor. A scale factor is something (a factor) that relates one shape to another.

A scale Factor is Algbrea so you have to... x - + and/or divided.
how do you find the scale factor of two circles
A scale factor requires two measures.
The areas are related by the square of the scale factor.
The area is directly proportional to the square of the scale factor. If the scale factor is 2, the area is 4-fold If the scale factor is 3, the area is 9-fold If the scale factor is 1000, the area is 1,000,000-fold
The scale factor in dilation determines the degree of enlargement or reduction of a geometric figure. A scale factor greater than 1 enlarges the figure, while a scale factor between 0 and 1 reduces it. The shape of the figure remains the same, but the dimensions change proportionally based on the scale factor. For example, a scale factor of 2 doubles the size of each dimension, while a scale factor of 0.5 halves them.
