Question

the figure on the right is a scaled copy of the figure on the left. answer attempt 1 out of 2 which side in the figure on the right corresponds to segment qn? what is the scale factor?

Explanation:

Step1: Identify corresponding sides

In scaled - copies, corresponding sides are in the same relative position. Segment $QN$ in the left - hand figure corresponds to segment $ED$ in the right - hand figure as the orientation and relative position of the points match.

Step2: Calculate scale factor

Count the lengths of corresponding sides on the grid. Let's assume each grid square has a side - length of 1 unit. Segment $QN$ has a length of 2 units (by counting grid squares). Segment $ED$ has a length of 4 units. The scale factor $k$ is given by the ratio of the length of the side in the scaled copy to the length of the corresponding side in the original copy. So, $k=\frac{\text{length of side in scaled copy}}{\text{length of corresponding side in original copy}}=\frac{4}{2} = 2$.

Answer:

Corresponding side to $QN$: $ED$
Scale factor: 2
