IM Geometry Unit 3 Lesson 12
These are the plans for a vegetable garden that a school is designing.[br][br]Scale: 1 unit = 2.8 ft
Write at least 3 equivalent ratios or equations using lengths from both the diagram and the full-size garden.[br]
For this pair of similar figures (A & C) determine the following:[br][br]1. a similarity statement[br]2. the scale factor between the similar figures[br]3. the missing lengths
For this pair of similar figures (B & F) determine the following:[br][br]1. a similarity statement[br]2. the scale factor between the similar figures[br]3. the missing lengths
For this pair of similar figures (D & E) determine the following:[br][br]1. a similarity statement[br]2. the scale factor between the similar figures[br]3. the missing lengths
Here is a quilt design made of right isosceles triangles. [br][br]The smallest squares in the center have an area of 1 square unit. [br][br]Find the dimensions of the triangles.
[list=1][*]Are the triangles similar? [/*][/list][list=1][*]If so, what are the scale factors?[/*][/list]
[list=1][*]This quilt is meant for a baby (1 unit = 6 inches). [/*][/list][list=1][*]To make a quilt for a queen-size bed, it needs to be 90 inches wide. [/*][/list][list=1][*]What dimensions should the center squares of the big quilt have to reach that width?[br][/*][/list]
