Answer:
To create a scaled copy, we multiply all the lengths in the original figure by the same number. This number is called the scale factor. In this example, the scale factor is 1.5, because 4⋅(1.5)=6, 5⋅(1.5)=7.5, and 6⋅(1.5)=9.
Explanation:
Notice that if we measure the height of the original small inverted triangle we get 2 units, now if we do the same for the copy we also get 2 units, therefore the copy of the figure has the same dimensions.
Answer: The scale factor is 1.
