Q. (2) A trapezoid has an area of 100 square units. What scale factor would be required to dilate the trapezoid to have each area?PART A6400 square units□PART B 900 square units□PART C 100 square units□PART D 25 square units□PART E 4 square units
Original Area: Original area of trapezoid = 100 square units.
PART A Scale Factor: PART A: New area = 6400 square units. To find the scale factor, take the square root of the ratio of the new area to the original area.Scale factor for PART A = 6400/100=64=8.
PART B Scale Factor: PART B: New area = 900 square units. Scale factor for PART B = 900/100=9=3.
PART C Scale Factor: PART C: New area = 100 square units. Scale factor for PART C = 100100=1=1.
PART D Scale Factor: PART D: New area = 25 square units. Scale factor for PART D = 10025=0.25=0.5.
PART E Scale Factor: PART E: New area = 4 square units. Scale factor for PART E = 1004=0.04=0.2.
