Question

If a scale drawing were made of the Golden Gate Bridge, would the drawing involve a dilation that decreased or increased the size of the original object it represents?(1 point)

Responses

Decreased because the Golden Gate Bridge is too big to fit on a piece of paper.
Decreased because the Golden Gate Bridge is too big to fit on a piece of paper.

Increased so you could see the details of the Golden Gate Bridge.

Answer 1

Decreased because the scale drawing would need to fit within the constraints of the paper size.

Answer 2

If you were to dilate a figure where side AB¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯

is 18 units long and side A′B′¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
is 6 units long, what would be the scale factor?(1 point)

Answer 3

The scale factor would be 1/3, because 6 (length of A'B') is 1/3 of 18 (length of AB).

Answer 4

so what is the answer

Answer 5

so what is the answer

The scale factor is 1/3.
