Question

1. enter the missing lengths in polygon b. 8. enter the missing angle measurements in polygon a. 9. tyler says that figure k is a scaled copy of figure g. is tyler correct? explain your thinking. figure g figure k

Explanation:

Step1: Recall definition of scaled - copy

A scaled - copy has all corresponding lengths in proportion and all corresponding angles equal.

Step2: Compare vertical side - lengths

In Figure G, the vertical side - length is 4 cm. In Figure K, the vertical side - length is 2 cm. The ratio of the vertical side - lengths is $\frac{2}{4}=\frac{1}{2}$.

Step3: Analyze horizontal segments

If Figure K were a scaled copy of Figure G, all horizontal segments in Figure K should be half of the corresponding horizontal segments in Figure G. However, if we look at the horizontal "indent" segments, they do not follow the same scaling factor as the outer vertical sides. For example, the relative positions and lengths of the horizontal "cuts" are not in the same proportion as the outer vertical sides when considering a single - scale factor. So, the shapes do not have all corresponding lengths in proportion.

Answer:

Tyler is not correct.
