When a rectangle is dilated, how do the perimeter and area of the rectangle change?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

A transformation of a figure in which all of the dimensions of the figure are multiplied by the same scale factor is called a dilation.

Effect of Dilation on Perimeter

Whenever a figure is dilated by a scale factor, the perimeter of the figure changes according to the same scale factor.

Effect of Dilation on Area

When a figure is dilated by a scale factor of (a)/(b), the area of the figure is  dilated by a scale factor of (a^(2))/(b^(2))

Example-

Lets imagine a rectangle with length 10 cm and width 8 cm

So area becomes = 10*8 = 80 square cm

Lets suppose the rectangle is reduced by a scale factor of (1)/(2) to produce a new rectangle.

So we will find the square of scale factor = ((1)/(2))^(2)=(1)/(4)

Now to find the area of the new rectangle(dilated one) we will multiply the area of the original rectangle by 1/4

= 80*(1)/(4)=20

Hence, area becomes 20 square cm.

26. Answer 44

6x + 11 = 10x - 9

subtract 11 and 10 from both sides to get
-4x = -20 then divide that by negative 4 whicg will get you x=5 then plug in
6(5)+11=44

27. Answer 18

9x-4=158 since bisect means cut into 2 equal pieces so abd and dbc equal 79, add 4 to get 162 then divide by 9 to get x=18

29. Answer 28

2h+6+h=90

(____)
this part represents G
complementary angles are two angles that add up to 90, so subtract 6 from 90 and add the variables to get 3h=84 then divide by 3

H = 28 to check you can plug 28 into the equation

∠D = 90°
∠E = x
∠F = 2x - 12


Angles in a triangle = 180°
  90 + x + 2x - 12 = 180
  78 + 3x = 180
 -78            -78
   3x = 102

  (3x)/(3) = (102)/(3)
  3 and 3 cancels out
  
  34 = x

∠E = 34°

∠F = 2x -12
      = 2 × 34 - 12
      = 56°
