Definition:Scale Factor The ratio of any two corresponding sides of similar polygons. Scale Factor Scale Factor
Solution 1. Find the Scale Factor Scale Factor: 2. Find the ratio of XY and BE Ratio of CD and XY 3. Set up a proportion and solve for XY Proportion 2(XY) = 9
3 D Y m Y + m X = 180 Consecutive Interior Angle Theorem m Y + 117 = 180 m Y = 63 m D = 63
p = 6 + + 9 + 3 p = XW + WZ + YZ + XY Need to find YZ 9 p = 24 2(YZ) = 18 YZ = 9
3 Ratio of the perimeters = scale factor 9
x x + x + 42 = 180 2x + 42 = 180 2x = 138 x = 69 8y = 100
72 x = 72 y = 11
Ratio of the perimeters = scale factor Fill in what you know and solve 8x =480 x = 60 The perimeter of ABC = 60 inches State your answer
B C F G E H D A Ratio of the perimeters = scale factor 18 Find FG 4(FG) = 18 18 4½ 4½
B C F G E H D A EF = GH and FG = EH p = EF + FG + GH + EH p = EF + FG + EF + FG p = 2(EF) + 2(FG) 15 = 2(EF) + 2(4½) 15 = 2(EF) + 9 6 = 2(EF) 3 = EF 18 18 4½ 3 3 4½
