Question

I need help fast for my test please

Answer 1

Answer:
`(23)/(6)`

Explanation:

To find the scale factor of one triangle to another you need to divide a side of the transformed triangle by the same corresponding side of the original triangle.

Since the right side triangle is the scaled copy, it is the transformed triangle and for now we'll call it triangle y and the original triangle, triangle x.

So we can take any side we know of triangle y and divide it by the similar side on triangle x. There is only the number 23 on the triangle y, so that makes this easier, same to triangle x. It doesn't matter which 23 or 6 I take.

Normally, we would simplify the fraction, but since the fraction
`(23)/(6)` is already in simplest form, that is our answer. It is 3
`(5)/(6)` in a mixed number form, but an improper fraction is the simplest. You can do a decimal also, but the question didn't ask for it.

Therefore, our answer is
`(23)/(6)`.

Hope that helped a lot. Let me know any further questions.
