Question

Polygon D is a scaled copy of Polygon C using a scale factor of 6.

How many times as large is the area of Polygon D compared to the area Polygon C?

Answer 1

The area of D is 36 times bigger than C

Explanation:

The scale factor is 1:6

We know the ratio of the areas is the ratio of the scale factor squared

1^2 : 6^2

1:36

The area of D is 36 times bigger than C
