Part 2:0706.4.3 Apply scale factor to solve problems involving area and volume. • Notes about Scale Factor • Area uses an exponent of 2. You will always square the scale factor. • Volume uses an exponent of 3. You will always cube the scale factor. • There are 3 ways you will be asked these types of problems. • #1 Given the area/volume of 1 figure and the scale factor- find the area/volume of the similar figure. • #2 Given the area/volume find the side length ratio **Remember to “undo an area” you will square root it (√) and to “undo a volume” you will cube root it (exponent 1/3) • #3 Given the 2 side lengths- find the difference in the figures (how many times larger/smaller one is)
#1 • A rectangular painting has an area of 720 square inches. Jasmine reduced the length and • width of this painting by a scale factor of 1/6 to create a miniature copy. What is the area of • the miniature copy? • A 12 square inches B 20 square inches • C 60 square inches D 120 square inches Change 16 to 1/6 (fraction) on your packet

#3 • Keziah built a scale model of the Gateway Arch in St. Louis, Missouri. A picture of the arch is shown below. • The base at each end of the actual arch is shaped like an equilateral triangle with side lengths of 54 feet. Keziah built her model using equilateral triangles for each base that were foot long on each side. Which statement about the areas of these triangles is true? • A) The area of the triangle at the base of the actual arch is 27 times the area of the triangle Keziah used for the base of her model. • B) The area of the triangle at the base of the actual arch is 108 times the area of the triangle Keziah used for the base of her model. • C) The area of the triangle at the base of the actual arch is 729 times the area of the triangle Keziah used for the base of her model. • D) The area of the triangle at the base of the actual arch is 11,664 times the area of the triangle Keziah used for the base of her model.
