Trapezoid DEFG is dilated by scale factor of 2\3 to form trapezoid D'E'FG. Side E'F' measures 32. What is the measure of side EF?

Respuesta :

Answer: 48

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Trapezoid DEFG is dilated by a scale factor of  [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

[tex]E'F'=32[/tex]

Suppose the length of EF is [tex]x[/tex]

Multiply the side length of DEFG by [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] to form E'F'

[tex]\Rightarrow E'F'=x\times \dfrac{2}{3}\\\\\Rightarrow 32=x\times \dfrac{2}{3}\\\\\Rightarrow x=16\times 3\\\Rightarrow x=48[/tex]

[tex]\therefore EF=48[/tex]
