A scale factor of 2.
scale factor!
Depends what you mean by the "size" of the figure.To double the linear dimensions of the figure ===> Multiply the linear dimensions by 2.To double the area of the figure ===> Multiply the linear dimensions by sqrt(2). (1.4142)
It can be.
if two polygons are similar, then the ratio of the length of 2 corresponding sides is called a scale factor

it is called a outter figure shape
scale factor!
The two scale factors are reciprocals of one another.
Scaling will proportionally reduce or enlarge a figure. The amount of scaling is given by the scale factor (greater than zero) If the scale factor is less than 1, the figure is reduced and it is sometimes called a contraction If the scale factor is greater than 1, the figure is enlarged, and it is called a dilation or enlargement. If a centre of enlargement is used, the distance of every point from the centre is multiplied by the scale factor. The scale factor can be negative in which case the distance to the new point is measured on the opposite side of the centre to the original point.
how do you find the scale factor of two circles
Each linear dimension is altered by a multiple which is the scale factor.
The scale factor

A transformation determined by a center point and a scale factor is known as a dilation. In this transformation, all points in a geometric figure are moved away from or toward the center point by a factor of the scale. If the scale factor is greater than 1, the figure enlarges; if it is between 0 and 1, the figure shrinks. This transformation preserves the shape of the figure but alters its size.
