The scale factor for two similar rectangles is four if the area of the smaller rectangle is 9 inches two what is the area of the larger rectangle?
324in2
169in2
144in2
36in2
The area of the larger rectangle would be 4 times the area of the smaller rectangle (since the scale factor is 4), so:
Area of larger rectangle = 4 x 9 = 36in2
Therefore, the answer is 36in2.
