How can you find the scale factor from a larger figure to the smaller figure using the scale factor from the smaller to larger figure?
Take the 'reciprocal' of the given scale factor to go the other way. The 'reciprocal' of a number is 1/(the number). 3 ==> 1/3 5 ==> 1/5 1/7 ==> 7 2/3 ==> 3/2 etc.
How do you find the scale factor in math?
well.... first off you have to find the scale factor...
Perimeter ratio 100 and find scale factor?
The linear scale factor is 100.
To find the surface area of the three dimensional figure you must find the perimeter of a face and then multiply by the height?
NO. This is the way to get the volume of a prism, not the surface area of any three-dimensional figure. To find the surface area of a three-dimensional figure, you must find the area of each of its faces and then add the side-areas together.
How to find the scale factor within two polygons?
Finding the scale factor for two polygons is simple to do. All you have to do is find the angles in a rectangle.
How do you figure out the scale factor of a circle?
how do you find the scale factor of two circles
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 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.
Suppose you copy a figure on a copier using the given size factor find the scale factor from the original figure to the copy in decimal form 150 percent?
1.25

To find the surface area of a three dimensional figure what do you have to find?
You need to find the area of each two dimensional surface on the figure. Do you have a specific figure in mind?

How do you find a scale factor?
A scale Factor is Algbrea so you have to... x - + and/or divided.
How do you find a scale factor from the smaller figure to the enlarged figure?
Look for corresponding parts of the two figures. Their ratio is the scale factor. For example, if you have two similar triangles, one has a side of length 3, and the corresponding side on the other triangle is 5, then the scale factor is 5/3 going from the small triangle to the big, or 3/5 going from the big triangle to the small.
How do you find the scale factor of a triangle?
You find the scale factor on a triangle by dividing the short side by the long side.
Perimeter ratio 100 and find scale factor?
The linear scale factor is 100.
