Area increase as the square of linear dimensions. So area is 9times means linear dimension increased to sqrt(9) = 3 times their original. ie r = 3

When a shape is enlarged the multiplying factor is greater than 1. Example : A factor of 7 means that a length of 1cm on the original shape would be represented by a length of 7cm on the enlarged shape.

uhhum i domt know
Remember, that the scale for volume is always cubed..... so you would want to take 100 x 100 x 100 to find the enlarged volume. The volume of the enlarged cone would be 1,000,000 cm cubed The answer given is incorrect. In order to work out the enlarged volume, you should take the original volume and multiply this by the linear scale factor cubed. In this case, the correct answer would be 800cm cubed, arrived at by taking the original volume of 100cm. cubed, and multiplying by the scale factor (2) cubed; 2 x2 x2 = 8.
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
When a shape is enlarged the multiplying factor is greater than 1. Example : A factor of 7 means that a length of 1cm on the original shape would be represented by a length of 7cm on the enlarged shape.
No - if the lengths of the sides are all increased by a factor of 3, the angles remain unchanged. You just wind up with a "similar" triangle 3 times the size of the original. A quick counterexample would be to consider what would happen if the angles DID change. The sum of the angles in the original triangle should be 180°. If the angles in the new, larger triangle tripled in size, the sum of the angles in the bigger triangle would be 540° - but the sum of the angles of a triangle should always remain 180°.
9 enlarged by a factor of a number is 9*y
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.
The scale factor is usually stated as a linear enlargement factor. Therefore, the area enlargement factor is the square of the scale factor, in this instance, 9. The area of the original drawing was thus 396/9 = 44 cm2.
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.
Yes. When a shape is enlarged the scale factor gives the ratio between corresponding lengths of the enlargement and the original.
From the Pythagorean theorem, if the unknown hypotenuse is called h, h2 = 162 + 122, or h = sq rt (256 + 144) = 20 units. (This is a 3-4-5 triangle enlarged by a factor of 4.)
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.
You find the scale factor on a triangle by dividing the short side by the long side.
