Question 1 • TX-Mathematical Models with Applications A

Make a conjecture about the similar solids. How is the scale factor and the ratio of the surface areas related? Check all that apply.

Answer
A
The dimensions of the larger cylinder are 3 times the dimensions of the smaller cylinder.
B
The surface area of the larger cylinder is 32, or 9, times the surface area of the smaller cylinder.
C
If proportional dimensional changes are made to a solid figure, then the surface area will change by the square of the scale factor of similar solids.
