The hypotenuse of a triangle was 14 cm and the hypotenuse of the final triangle was 2.1 cm what is the scale factor
To find the scale factor, we need to divide the length of the final hypotenuse by the length of the original hypotenuse.
Scale factor = final hypotenuse / original hypotenuse
Scale factor = 2.1 cm / 14 cm
Scale factor ≈ 0.15
Therefore, the scale factor is approximately 0.15.
