Answer :
The scale factor of the image which is the ratio of the longest side of image and the longest side of the actual rectangle is 0.259
Actual Dimension of rectangle :
- Longest side = 8.5 meters
Scaled dimension of the rectangle :
- Longest side = 2.2 meters
To obtain the scale factor used to produce the image :
- Longest side of image ÷ Longest side of actual triangle
- 2.2 meters ÷ 8.5 meters
- Scale factor = 0.259
Therefore, the scaled factor used to produce the image of the rectangle is 0.259
