How does a scale factor relate to a scale factor?
Tautologically!
How is the scale factor the same as the ratio of the area?
The scale factor between two similar figures is the ratio of their corresponding linear dimensions (lengths). When calculating the area of similar figures, the area ratio is equal to the square of the scale factor, since area is a two-dimensional measurement. Thus, if the scale factor is ( k ), the ratio of the areas is ( k^2 ). This relationship illustrates that while the scale factor pertains to linear dimensions, the area ratio reflects the effect of that scaling in two dimensions.
How does scale factor relate to perimeter?
Scale factor and perimeter are related because if the scale factor is 2, then the perimeter will be doubled. So whatever the scale factor is, that is how many times the perimeter will be enlarged.
How does the scale factor apply to the area?
The areas are related by the square of the scale factor.
How do you find the scale factor in math?
well.... first off you have to find the scale factor...
What if the scale factors equal 1?
If the scale factor between two shapes is 1, the shapes are congruent.
What does 500 miles on a map equal?
That depends on the scale factor of the map.
Maria's yard is 40 ft by 28 ft 9 in She made a scale drawing of her yard that is 16 in by 11.5 in What scale factor did she use?
To find the scale factor, divide the corresponding dimensions on the scale drawing by the actual dimensions. For the length, 40 ft is equal to 480 in, so the scale factor is 16 in / 480 in = 1/30. For the width, 28 ft 9 in is equal to 345 in, so the scale factor is 11.5 in / 345 in = 1/30. María used a scale factor of 1/30 in her drawing.
What is the scale factor of the sun's diameter to an NBA basketball's diameter?
The Sun is about 1,390,000 kilometers in diameter. The NBA basketball is about 0.238506 meters in diamter. The scale factor is about 1,390,000,000 to 0.238506, or about 5,827,945,628 to 1 or about 5.8 billion to one.

How do you dilate a scale factor?
You increase the 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.
Can two squares have the same ratio for their scale factor and the ratio of their areas?
Let a represent the scale factor of the two squares. Then it follows that the ratio of the areas is a^2. If these are equal, you get the equation a = a^2, and this is only true for a=0 or a=1. However, the only applicable value for a here is 1. In short, yes, they can, but only if both the scale factor and the ratio of the areas are equal to 1 (i.e. the squares are congruent)

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.
What is the name of the common ratio of corresponding sides of similar figures?
The scale factor.The scale factor.The scale factor.The scale factor.
