Show how to find scale factor of a small triangle to a larger similar triangle?
The ratio of the length of the side in the big triangle to the length of the corresponding side in the little triangle is the scale factor.
Dilation that occurs with scale factor of 2?
Two figures whose linear measurements differ by multiplying by 2. A triangle that is 3 by 4 by 5 would dilate to 6 by 8 by 10.
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 find the scale factor from 1 polygon to the other?
You cannot. There is no scale factor between an irregular pentagon and an equilateral triangle, for example.
How do you dilate a scale factor?
You increase the 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 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 the scale factor of a triangle?
You find the scale factor on a triangle by dividing the short side by the long side.
Show how to find scale factor of a small triangle to a larger similar triangle?
The ratio of the length of the side in the big triangle to the length of the corresponding side in the little triangle is the scale factor.
Dilation that occurs with scale factor of 2?
Two figures whose linear measurements differ by multiplying by 2. A triangle that is 3 by 4 by 5 would dilate to 6 by 8 by 10.
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 if the scale factors equal 1?
If the scale factor between two shapes is 1, the shapes are congruent.
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 for the reduction of an equilateral triangle that was 6 inches then reduced to 2 inches?
The scale factor is 3:1
What is an example of a scale factor?
If a big triangle has a base length of 6, and a small triangle has a corresponding base length of 3, the scale factor from large to small is 2/1 (or 2). The scale factor from small to large would be 1/2.
What are the coordinates of the vertices of triangle a'b'c' after triangle ABC is dilated using a scaling factor of 3?
Find the coordinates of the vertices of triangle a'b'c' after triangle ABC is dilated using the given scale factor then graph triangle ABC and its dilation A (1,1) B(1,3) C(3,1) scale factor 3
