Question

quadrilateral o is a scaled copy of quadrilateral n. what scale factor takes quadrilateral n to quadrilateral o?

Explanation:

Step1: Select corresponding sides

Choose a pair of corresponding sides, e.g., 30 in N and 48 in O.

Step2: Calculate scale - factor

The scale factor $k$ is found by dividing the length of the side in the scaled - copy (O) by the length of the corresponding side in the original (N). So $k=\frac{48}{30}$.

Step3: Simplify the fraction

$\frac{48}{30}=\frac{8}{5}=1.6$

Answer:

$1.6$
