Emily designs a piece of jewelry in the shape of a regular pentagon each side of the object measures 3 cm Emily photograph the object in large is it so that each side measures 8 cm and print the photo what scale factor did emily used to create the photograph from the original
To determine the scale factor, we need to compare the measurements of the sides of the original pentagon and the photograph.
The original pentagon has sides measuring 3 cm each. The photograph has sides measuring 8 cm each.
So, the scale factor can be found by dividing the length of the photograph's side (8 cm) by the length of the original pentagon's side (3 cm):
Scale factor = 8 cm / 3 cm = 2.67 (rounded to two decimal places)
Therefore, Emily used a scale factor of approximately 2.67 to create the photograph from the original jewelry design.
