What is scale factor?

When describing an enlargement you must state by how much the shape has been enlarged or reduced.

Area of triangle B =[tex]\frac{1}{2} * b *h[/tex]

                                = 0.5 x 2 x 3

                               = 3 units

Area of triangle A =[tex]\frac{1}{2} * b *h[/tex]

                                = 0.5 x 4 x 6

                               = 12 units

Scale factor =[tex]\frac{Area of \; triangle B}{Area of\; triangle A}[/tex]

                    =[tex]\frac{3}{12}[/tex]

                    = [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

Hence, the scale factor of dilation is [tex]\LARGE \frac{1}{4}[/tex].
