Kenzie notices that her neighbor has a window on his house that is in the shape of a triangle. The height of the window is 10 inches and the base of the window is 6 inches. She makes a scale drawing of the triangular-shaped window. If the base of her scale drawing is 3 inches, what is the height of her scale drawing? (1 point)

The scale factor between the actual window and the scale drawing is 6 inches (actual base) / 3 inches (base of scale drawing) = 2.
Therefore, the height of her scale drawing would be 10 inches (actual height) / 2 = 5 inches.
