Question

Quadrilateral PQRS is dilated by a scale factor of to

form quadrilateral P'Q'R'S'. What is the measure of side
QR?

Answer 1

Answer: 24 units

Explanation:

If you are multiplying a shape by a scale factor, the dimensions are also multiplied by the scale factor.

QR= x

Q'R'= (1/2)(X)

12=(1/2)(X)

(2)12= 1/2x(2)

24=X

If you're multiplying QR by 1/2 you would get 12. 12 is a half of QR. Therefore, QR is 24.
