Rectangle IJKL is dilated by a scale factor of 33 to form rectangle I'J'K'L'. Side I'J' measures 4848. What is the measure of side IJ?
This is wrong the answer is 12
To find the measure of side IJ, we need to determine the scale factor between the original rectangle IJKL and the dilated rectangle I'J'K'L'.
The scale factor is the ratio of corresponding side lengths in the dilated shape to the original shape. In this case, we know that side I'J' measures 4848 in the dilated rectangle.
Since the scale factor is the same for all sides of the rectangle, we can use this information to find the measure of side IJ.
The formula to find the measure of side IJ is:
IJ = I'J' / scale factor
Given that I'J' = 4848 and the scale factor between the original and dilated rectangle is 33, we can substitute these values into the formula to find the measure of side IJ.
IJ = 4848 / 33
IJ ≈ 146.91
Therefore, the measure of side IJ is approximately 146.91.
4848/33 = 146.91
