Question

Complete Steps 1 - 2 in order. Triangle ABC has an area of 25 square feet and a perimeter of 5 65.5 feet. AABC is dilated by a factor of to create 2 ADEE. X 10. ​

Answer 1

163.75

Explanation:

a scale factor applies normally to lengths (one-dimensional sizes).

and the perimeter is calculated just by lengths (the side lengths).

so, we can apply the scaling factor directly to the perimeter.

perimeter of DEF = 5/2 × perimeter of ABC = 5/2 × 65.5 =

= 163.75 ft

what was step 1 ? we did not need it ?
