There need not be any. There is no scale factor between a pentagon with a perimeter of 50 cm and a triangle with a perimeter of 75 cm. The shapes are totally different!
The scale factor is 2 : 3.

Two similar triangles have a scale factor of 14 If the perimeter of the smaller triangle is 10 what is the perimeter of the larger?
the answer to this question is 1:4 10: ? =10x4/1 =40
If two polygons are similar how can you find the scale factor from one polygon to the other?
divide the perimeter by 27 the multiply it by 3 and then u get the answer
Describe at least two ways of finding a missing side length in a pair of similar figures?
You would look at the side lengths and the scale factor to find a pair of similar figures :)
What does Scale Factor mean?
A scale factor is a number which scales, or multiplies, some quantity. A scale factor of two would mean to multiply whatever it is by two.
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.
What does the scale factor between two similar figures tell you about the perimeter?
The perimeter will scale by the same factor.
What does the scale factor between two similar figures tell you about the given measurement perimeters?
Perimeter will scale by the same factor. Area of the new figure, however is the original figures area multiplied by the scale factor squared. .
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 (: .....
For parts ac what does the scale factor between two similar figures tell you about the given measurements a side lengths b perimeter c areas?
For a, it tells you how many times the side lengths grew or shrunk.For b, it tells you that the perimeter grows or shrinks: scale factor times original perimeter.For c, it tells you that the area grows or shrinks: scale factor squared times the original area.
What does scale factor tell about the area of two similar figures?
The areas will be proportional to (scale)2
What does scale factor of two similar figures tell you about area?
If the sides of two shapes have a scale factor of sf:1, then their areas will be in the ratio of sf2: 1.
What two things do sf stand for in maths?
Scale factor Significant figures
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.
What is the ratio of any two corresponding lengths in two similar geometric figures?
scale factor
What information does the scale factor give us about two similar figures?
The ratio of the lengths of their corresponding sides.
Two similar triangles have a scale factor of 14 If the perimeter of the smaller triangle is 10 what is the perimeter of the larger?
the answer to this question is 1:4 10: ? =10x4/1 =40
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.
