Question

original scaled copy 6 ? 2 8 6 2 original ? 8 scaled copy what is the scale factor from the original figure to the scaled copy? ?

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate the scale factor

The scale factor is the ratio of the corresponding side lengths of the scaled copy to the original. For the side with known lengths (original \(2\), scaled copy \(8\)), the scale factor \(k=\frac{\text{scaled copy}}{\text{original}}\).
So, \(k = \frac{8}{2}\)

Step2: Simplify the ratio

\(k=\frac{8}{2}=4\)

Answer:

\(4\)
