Question

Triangle PQR is transformed to the similar triangle P′Q′R′.

What is the scale factor of dilation?


1 over 2

1 over 3

1 over 4

1 over 5

Answer 1

1/2

is your answer i got it right

Explanation:

Answer 2

`Scale\ Factor = (1)/(2)`

Explanation:

This question requires an attachment;

I'll answer your question using the attached figure

Since, PQR is similar to P'Q'R'; This implies that

Side PQ is similar to P'Q'

Side PR is similar to P'R'

Side QR is similar to Q'R'

Taking sides PQ and P'Q' as point of reference

PQ = 4; P'Q' = 2 (From the attached)

`Scale\ Factor = (P'Q')/(PQ)`

`Scale\ Factor = (2)/(4)`

`Scale\ Factor = (1)/(2)`
