If I am photocopying a rectangle that is 8 cm x 10 cm what scale factor do I use if I wanted to become 16 cm x 20 cm?
To determine the scale factor for enlarging a rectangle from 8 cm x 10 cm to 16 cm x 20 cm, divide the dimensions of the larger rectangle by the dimensions of the smaller rectangle. For the width, 16 cm ÷ 8 cm = 2, and for the height, 20 cm ÷ 10 cm = 2. Therefore, the scale factor you would use is 2.
The two cylinders below are similar. What is the length of the radius of the larger cylinder?
To determine the radius of the larger cylinder, we need to know the radius of the smaller cylinder and the scale factor between the two cylinders. If the scale factor is provided, multiply the radius of the smaller cylinder by this factor to find the radius of the larger cylinder. Without specific measurements or a scale factor, we cannot calculate the radius of the larger cylinder.
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 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 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 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 of spheres with a radius of 12 and 4?
Assuming the smaller sphere is the image of the larger sphere after transformation (based on the order of the radii): the scale factor is 4/12 = 1/3
Suppose rectangle E has an area of 9 square centimeters and rectangle F had an area of 900 square centimeters The two rectangles are similar What is the scale factor from rectangle E to rectangle F?

Abe acd find the scale factor?
To find the scale factor, you need to compare the corresponding sides of two similar figures. The scale factor is calculated by dividing the length of a side on the larger figure by the length of the corresponding side on the smaller figure. For example, if the larger figure has a side length of 8 units and the corresponding side on the smaller figure is 2 units, the scale factor would be 8 divided by 2, which equals 4.
Rectangle with area of 144 and scale factor of 4 what is the area of a similar rectangle?

How do you find the scale factor from a large rectangle to a small rectangle?
If you know one of the sides of both the rectangles than you just divide them by one another to find the scale factor.
