If you want to dilate an isosceles right triangle with a hypotenuse of 18 yards, to create a dilated image with a hypotenuse of 12 yards, what scale factor should you use?(1 point)
The scale factor you should use to dilate the isosceles right triangle from a hypotenuse of 18 yards to a hypotenuse of 12 yards is 2/3.
To find the scale factor, you can divide the length of the new hypotenuse by the length of the original hypotenuse:
Scale factor = new hypotenuse length / original hypotenuse length
Scale factor = 12 / 18
Scale factor = 2/3
