Final answer:
To find the scale factor for transforming Cone 1 into Cone 2, divide a dimension of Cone 2 by the corresponding dimension of Cone 1. If Cone 2 has a height four times that of Cone 1, the scale factor is 4.
Step-by-step explanation:
To determine the scale factor for transforming Cone 1 into Cone 2, you'll need to know the dimensions of both cones. Unfortunately, the specific dimensions are not provided here, but I can guide you through how to calculate the scale factor once you have two corresponding measurements for Cone 1 and Cone 2.
Let's say the height of Cone 1 is 'h1' and the height of Cone 2 is 'h2'. The scale factor from Cone 1 to Cone 2 would be the ratio of 'h2' to 'h1' (scale dimension over actual dimension). If Cone 2 is smaller than Cone 1, the scale factor would be less than 1. If Cone 2 is larger, the scale factor would be greater than 1.
Here's an example:
- If Cone 1 has a height of 4 meters and Cone 2 has a height of 16 meters, then the scale factor is 16m / 4m = 4. This means Cone 2 is four times larger than Cone 1.
To apply this concept, you simply multiply the dimensions of Cone 1 by the scale factor to get the dimensions of Cone 2.
In practice, to find the scale factor you will:
- Choose corresponding dimensions of Cone 1 and Cone 2 (often height or radius).
- Divide the measurement from Cone 2 by the measurement from Cone 1.
- The result gives you the scale factor.
