scaled shape: 32mm and 16mm smaller shape 4mm and b Given that the two figures are similar, use a scale factor to find the missing length b.
s the orrect answer 8?
To find the scale factor, we can compare the corresponding sides of the two shapes:
32mm / 4mm = 8
Therefore, the scale factor is 8.
Now, we can use the scale factor to find the missing length b:
32mm / b = 8
b = 32mm / 8
b = 4mm
So the missing length b is 4mm, not 8.
