Perimeter Scale Factor
Use the slider below to explore the relationships between scale factor and perimeter.
Set the scale factor to 2. As Square B doubles in size compared to Square A, what happens to Square B's perimeter compared to Square A?
Set the scale factor to 3. As Square B triples in size compared to Square A, what happens to Square B's perimeter compared to Square A?
If Square B is 7 times larger than Square A, explain how you could determine the Square B's perimeter and area.
If Square B is half the size of Square A, predict the perimeter of Sqaure B.
