A square has a side length of 14 inches. This square is dilated by a scale factor of 35 to create a new square. What is the side length of the new square?
The new side length is 8.4. When you do dialations, you multiply the side length, 14, by the scale factor, 3/5. 14 × 3.5 gives you the answer 8.4. Hope this helps!
