Given
To find the scale factor of triangle DEF to triangle ABC.
Step-by-step explanation:
It is known that,
When two triangles are similar the reduced ratio of any two corresponding sides is called the scale factor of the similar triangles.
From, the figure
![\Delta ABC\text{ is similar to }\Delta DEF]()
That implies,

Hence, the scale factor of triangle DEF to triangle ABC is 5:1.
