Question

ABCD has a perimeter of 27 units and is dilated by a scale factor of 1/3. What is the perimeter of A¹B¹C¹D¹?

Answer 1

Perimeter of A'B'C'D' = 9 units

Explanation:

Given:

Perimeter of ABCD = 27 units

Scale factor = 1 / 3

Find:

Perimeter of A'B'C'D'

Computation:

Perimeter of A'B'C'D' = 1/3[Perimeter of ABCD]

Perimeter of A'B'C'D' = 1/3[27]

Perimeter of A'B'C'D' = 9 units
