The triangle represents a scale drawing that was created by using a factor of One-half. A triangle with sides lengths of 5 inches. Which is true of the measures of the sides of the original triangle?

Given:

Scale factor =

Side lengths of scale drawing  = 5 inches.

To find:

The measures of the sides of the original triangle.

Solution:

We know that,

The scale factor is and the side lengths of scale drawing are 5 inches. So,

Therefore, the measures of the sides of the original triangle are 10 inches.

step-by-step explanation:

given expression is .

now we need to simplify the given expression .

we know that square root is equivalent to the power 1/2. so that means we can take half of the exponents to get the square root of given expression.

expanding that will give a very very large number so let's keep answer in exponent form.
