Question

The first triangle is dilated to form the second triangle. Select True or False for each statement.

Statement( True/ False)
1. The scale factor is 0.4.
2. The scale factor is 0.9.
3. The scale factor is 2.1.
4. The scale factor is 2.5.

Answer 1

Without knowledge of the dimensions of the triangles, we cannot determine the scale factor.

Step-by-step explanation:

The scale factor can be determined by comparing the corresponding lengths of the two triangles. In this case, we do not have the dimensions of the triangles to calculate the scale factor. Therefore, we cannot determine whether the statements are true or false without additional information.
