PLEASE HELP OMG the side lengths of triangle MNO are given: MN=5, NO=4, OM=2.5. the triangle is dilated by a scale factor of k with the center at point M to create triangle MGH. the perimeter of MGH is 17.25 units. What is the scale factor k

Respuesta :

MrRoyal

The value of the scale factor k, is 1.5

Perimeter

The perimeter of a shape is the sum of the side lengths of the shape

Dimensions

The dimensions of the triangle MNO are given as:

[tex]MN = 5[/tex]

[tex]NO = 4[/tex]

[tex]OM = 2.5[/tex]

Calculate the perimeter of the triangle as follows:

[tex]MNO=5 + 4 +2.5[/tex]

[tex]MNO=11.5[/tex]

Divide 17.25 by 11.5 to calculate the scale factor (k)

[tex]k = \frac{17.25}{11.5}[/tex]

[tex]k = 1.5[/tex]

Hence, the scale factor is 1.5
