Given:
Quadrilateral A has side lengths 6,9,9, and 12.
Quadrlateral B with its shortest side length 2.
Required:
(a)Scale factor.
(b)Perimeter of qaudrilateral B.
Explanation:
We have the quadrilateral A with its side lengths 6,9,9, and 12.
Also, the shortest length of side of quadrilateral B is 2.
(a) The scale factor can be calculated by dividing the shortest length of side quadrilateral A by the shortest length of side of quadrilateral B.
Therefore, scale factor is,
[tex]\frac{6}{2}=3[/tex]
Hence, the lengths of sides of quadrilateral B are, 2,3,3, and 4.
(b) The perimeter (P) of quadrilateral B is the sum of lengths of all its sides given by,
[tex]\begin{gathered} P=2+3+3+4 \\ \Rightarrow P=12 \end{gathered}[/tex]
Final Answer:
(a)The scale factor is, 3.
(b)The perimeter of quadrilateral B is 12.
