Question

what scale factor can be applied to cone 1 to make cone 2?

a. 4/3
b. 3/4
c. 3/2
d. 2/3

Answer 1

Answer:

2/3 can be applied to cone 1 to make cone 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3=0.666666..

Any number between 0-1 can be used to "shrink" the object/volume.

- Divide a dimension of Cone 2 by the corresponding dimension of Cone 1 (2÷3)

Answer 2

The scale factor of the cone 1 to cone 2 will be 3/2. Then the correct option is C.

What is dilation?

Dilation is the process of increasing the size of an item without affecting its form. Depending on the scale factor, the object's size can be raised or lowered.

There is no effect of dilation on the angle.

The cone 1 has the base radius of the circle is 3 units and height of the cone is 9 units.

The cone 2 has the base radius of the circle is 2 units and height of the cone is 6 units.

Then the scale factor of the cone 1 to cone 2 will be

Scale factor = (Radius of cone 1) / (Radius of cone 2)

Scale factor = 3 / 2

Thus, the scale factor of the cone 1 to cone 2 will be 3/2.

Then the correct option is C.
