Question

quadrilateral l is a scaled copy of quadrilateral k.
quadrilateral k (with sides 30, 30, 18) and quadrilateral l (with sides 35, 35, 21)
what scale factor takes quadrilateral k to quadrilateral l?

Explanation:

Step1: Identify corresponding sides

Corresponding sides are \(18\) (in quadrilateral \(K\)) and \(21\) (in quadrilateral \(L\)).

Step2: Calculate the scale factor

The scale factor formula is \(\frac{\text{Length in }L}{\text{Length in }K}\). So, \(\frac{21}{18}=\frac{7}{6}\).

Answer:

\(\frac{7}{6}\)
