Scale factor 2008-05-28
Riley pose la question :
I have a math problem, and a big test coming up on Friday or Thursday (my teacher hasn't decided yet.) I need help understanding how I would do this problem. Here it is: they wanted me to find the perimeter and area of a rectangle when they only give me the scale factor. I've delt with scale factors before, but this is quite confusing. I have done the scale factor way by having a rectangle that maybe has a width of 10 and a height of 20, and I needed to find what the scale factor would be for a rectangle with the width of 5 and a height of 10. I know that they scale factor would be 2, right? But this just gives me the scale factor, and I have to FIND the perimeter and area. Hopefully you can get back to me tonight.

Reducing the over all size of a irregular pentagon 2007-04-11
Gilbert pose la question :
I'm having trouble figuring out how to reduce the over all size of a irregular pentagon. The pentagon I'm trying to reduce has 2 right angles adjacent to each other. Basically the shape of a house. I have width, length of the legs and the height of the peak. But cannot figure out how to get the size of a reduced version that keeps the same proportion and angles. Thanks Gilbert
