Question

Rectangle B is shown below. Nadia drew a scaled version of Rectangle B using a scale factor of = and labeled it Rectangle C.
What is the area of Rectangle C?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let say Sides of Rectangle B are

Length = 5X &

Breadth = 5Y

Area of rectangle B = Length * Breadth

= 5X * 5Y

= 25XY

Nadia Drew Rectangle C using a scale factor of 1/5

Length of C = 5X(1/5) = X

Breadth of C= 5Y(1/5) = Y

Area of Rectangle C = XY

Area of Rectangle C = 25XY /25

=> Area of Rectangle C = Area of

rectangle B /25

Area of Rectangle C = (1/25) Area of

rectangle
