Triangle EFG is dilated by a scale factor of 1/4 ​ to form triangle E'F'G'. Side E'F' measures 12.512.5. What is the measure of side EF?

Respuesta :

Answer: 3.125

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Triangle is dilated by a factor of [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] i.e. each side multiplies to 0.25.

Side E'F' becomes 0.25 times the original length

[tex]\Rightarrow E'F'=\dfrac{1}{4}\times 12.5=3.125[/tex]
