We can use a scale factor (or a multiplier) to compare the lengths of different figures and see if they are scaled copies of the original. The original figure and scaled copies have corresponding angles that have the same measure.
What is a scale factor? How does it work? Students can use informal language to describe corresponding parts, and recognize a scale factor as a common ratio between the lengths of corresponding side lengths. In the figure, triangle \(DEF\) is a scaled copy of triangle \(ABC\).
15 sie 2020 · Definition: Scale Factor. To create a scaled copy, we multiply all the lengths in the original figure by the same number. This number is called the scale factor. In this example, the scale factor is 1.5, because \(4\cdot (1.5)=6\), \(5\cdot (1.5)=7.5\), and \(6\cdot (1.5)=9\). Figure \(\PageIndex{4}\)
