two similar hexagons have perimeters of 20m and 50m. what is there scale factor?

10 years and we still have not solved it. wow.

Scale factor between two similar polygons is the ratio of the linear dimensions, in this case, perimeter.

The factor of the larger one to the smaller one is
50/20=2.5

To find the scale factor between two similar hexagons, we can compare their perimeters.

The scale factor is the ratio of the corresponding side lengths of the two hexagons. Since a regular hexagon has all sides equal, we can use the ratio of their perimeters to determine the scale factor.

In this case, the first hexagon has a perimeter of 20m, and the second hexagon has a perimeter of 50m.

To find the scale factor, divide the perimeter of the second hexagon (50m) by the perimeter of the first hexagon (20m):

Scale factor = 50m / 20m = 2.5

The scale factor between the two similar hexagons is 2.5.
