To find the area of square B, first square the scale factor, 3.

32 = 9

Next, divide the area of square A by 9.

1,764 cm2 ÷ 9 = 196 cm2

25. Since the scale for the model on the left is 1 cm = 15 ft, and the scale for the model on the right is 1 cm = 7.5 ft, the model on the right is 2 times larger than the model on the left.

Multiply the height of the model on the left by 2 to find the height of the model on the right.

17 cm × 2 = 34 cm

26. The scale for the model on the left is 1 cm = 3.75 m, and the scale for the model on the right is 1 cm = 2.5 m. Divide to find how much larger the model on the right is than the model on the left.

3.75 ÷ 2.5 = 1.5

So, the model on the right is 1.5 times larger than the model on the left.

Multiply the length of side a by 1.5 to find the length of side b.

4 cm × 1.5 = 6 cm

27. Since figure KLMN and figure PQRS are similar, their corresponding sides are proportional. Sides KN and MN correspond to sides PS and RS, respectively.
