What triangle is always similar?
An equilaterial triangle is always similar, because the corresponding angles are conqruent, it has the same basic shape, and it has a scale factor.
What is the definition of scale factor?
The scale factor between two similar shapes is the ratio of the dimensions of one (often the smaller) compared with the dimension of the other (the larger).
How do you find a separate set of lengths for a similar triangle?
just use a scale factor! multiply all the dimensions by X and you'll have the dimensions of the new triangle. of course the angles and all are the same b.c theyre similar.
When dilating a triangle to enlarge the triangle you must use a scale factor that is 1 1 equals 1 equals 0?
No, there cannot be a zero in any scale factor.
What is the scale factor for the reduction of an equilateral triangle that was 6 inches then reduced to 2 inches?
The scale factor is 3:1
How do you use the scale factor of a triangle to enlarge it?
The way you use a scale factor to enlarge a triangle is to multiply each side of the triangle by that scale factor. Your triangle will then be that many times larger.
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 a scale factor on a triangle?
If two triangles are similar, then the reduced ratio of any two corresponding sides is called the scale factor of the similar triangles
What triangle is always similar?
An equilaterial triangle is always similar, because the corresponding angles are conqruent, it has the same basic shape, and it has a scale factor.
Two similar triangles have a scale factor of 14 If the perimeter of the smaller triangle is 10 what is the perimeter of the larger?
the answer to this question is 1:4 10: ? =10x4/1 =40
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.
What is the definition of scale factor?
The scale factor between two similar shapes is the ratio of the dimensions of one (often the smaller) compared with the dimension of the other (the larger).
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 a separate set of lengths for a similar triangle?

No, there cannot be a zero in any scale factor.
What are the relationship between the area scale factor and the side length scale factor of similar figures?
The area scale factor is the square of the side length scale factor.
Two triangles are similar. The dimensions of the first are 7 8 and W while the dimensions of the second one are 3.5 4 and 5. The scale factor used to get from the first triangle to the second one is?
Scale factor: 2 to 1
