What is the scale factor of a 3 sided shape?
1 shape cannot have a scale factor. A scale factor is something (a factor) that relates one shape to another.
Transformation that proportionally reduces or enlarges a figure?
Dilation is a linear transformation that enlarges or shrinks a figure proportionally. It is also referred to as uniform scaling in Euclidean geometry.

Is a scale factor of 1 a dilation?
No a scale factor of 1 is not a dilation because, in a dilation it must remain the same shape, which it would, but the size must either enlarge or shrink.
What decides if a figure enlarges or reduced?
The scale factor
What is a ratio that enlarges or reduces similar fractions?

How do you find a scale factor in math?
To find the scale factors of two objects, you need to compare the ratios of things like their sizes, areas, volumes, and length. For example, if one is given a volume of 7 for a shape, and a second shape has a volume of 14, you have to compare the volume ratio of these two shapes to find the scale factor. This scale factor is 1 to 2, or the volume of the second shape is twice the first one. Scale factors are useful for scale drawings.
What if the scale factors equal 1?
If the scale factor between two shapes is 1, the shapes are congruent.
What is A transformation that is determined by a center point and a scale factor?
A transformation determined by a center point and a scale factor is known as a dilation. In this transformation, all points in a geometric figure are moved away from or toward the center point by a factor of the scale. If the scale factor is greater than 1, the figure enlarges; if it is between 0 and 1, the figure shrinks. This transformation preserves the shape of the figure but alters its size.
What is similar about scale and scale factor?
proportions are used in scale factors; scale factors ARE proportions

How do you calculate the scale factor if you have the scale?
You calculate the scale factor if you do have a scale is by dividing if it is a small shape to a large shape and multiplying if it is a large shape to a small shape example: shape 1 sqaure shape 2 square equation 2 10 10/2=5 shape 2 square shape 2 square equation 10 2 2/10
What factors determine the shape of the long run supply curve in perfect competition?
The shape of the long run supply curve in perfect competition is determined by factors such as technology, input prices, and economies of scale. These factors influence the ability of firms to produce goods efficiently and at different levels of output, which in turn affects the overall shape of the supply curve.
How does a dilation of a figure with a scale factor 0.5 compare to a dilation of the figure worth a scale factor 2?
A dilation with a scale factor of 0.5 reduces the size of the figure to half its original dimensions, resulting in a smaller figure. In contrast, a dilation with a scale factor of 2 enlarges the figure to twice its original dimensions, creating a larger figure. Therefore, the two dilations produce figures that are similar in shape but differ significantly in size, with the scale factor of 2 yielding a figure that is four times the area of the figure dilated by 0.5.
Surface area of a hypercube?
As you would find the surface area of a normal shape using scale factors: to find the volume scale factor cubed, therefore to find the surface area of the hypercube, you do the scale factor to the power of four. geoffrz450@yahoo.co.uk
