Question

What scale factor was used to produce figure 1 from figure 2?

two triangles labeled figure 1 and figure 2, where figure 1 has legs that are 3 units long and figure 2 has legs that are 6 units long

one half

2

one sixth

6

Answer 1

Since the legs of figure 2 are twice as long as those of figure 1, the scale factor to produce figure 1 from figure 2 would be 1/2. This means that every length in figure 1 is half the length of the corresponding length in figure 2.
