Question
polygon q is a scaled copy of polygon p.
- what is the scale factor?
Step1: Recall scale factor formula
The scale factor from Polygon P to Polygon Q is the ratio of a corresponding side length of Q to the corresponding side length of P.
Step2: Identify corresponding sides
The top side of P is 4, and the top side of Q is 3. So we calculate the ratio of Q's side to P's side: $\frac{3}{4}$.
