What is the ratio of any two corresponding lengths in two similar geometric figures?
scale factor
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.
If two figures are similar what is the scale factor?
The scale factor will depend on the side lengths. (Angle measures of the figures will be identical.) For example, if the smaller side had a length of 5 and the larger side had a length of 10 the ratio of the two figures would be 1:2.
The of the corresponding side lengths of similar triangles is called the scale factor?

What is the definition of a scale factor?
The ratio of any two corresponding similar geometric figures lengths in two . Note: The ratio of areas of two similar figures is the square of the scale factor. The ratio of volumes of two similar figures is the cube of the scale factor. .... (: hope it helped (: .....
What is the ratio of 2 corresponding linear measurements in a pair of similar figures?
The constant of proportionality or scale factor.
What information does the scale factor give us about two similar figures?
The ratio of the lengths of their corresponding sides.
When are two similar figures also congruent?
If the scale factor is 1. That is, if a pair of corresponding sides are the same length.
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.
What term in geometry is in this definition Two figures are similar if and only if they have all their corresponding scale factor are congruentand all their corresponding are proportional?
Not sure about geometry but the definition contains a redundant repetition.
How do you solve your math problems dealing with similar figures?
Any two corresponding sides in two similar figures have a common ratio called the scale factor. Since the figures are similar, the ratios of the lengths of corresponding sides of the figures are equal. 1. Match a side of both figures, 2. write the proportions 3. substitute the values 4. Write the cross product 5. Divide both sides by a common factor 6. simplify 7. Convert improper fraction into mixed number
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.
If two figures are similar what is the scale factor?
The scale factor will depend on the side lengths. (Angle measures of the figures will be identical.) For example, if the smaller side had a length of 5 and the larger side had a length of 10 the ratio of the two figures would be 1:2.
Why are congruent figures also similar?
They are similar, with a scale factor of 1.
Can congruent figures also be similar?
They must be similar, with scale factor = 1.
