  1. One row 5 | ?, with the arrow × 4 from A to B. Ari enlarges a drawing into a poster. The scale factor from A (the drawing) to B (the poster) is 4. The drawing is 5 inches wide. How many inches wide is the poster?

  2. One row 30 | ?, with the arrow × 5 from A to B. Bo builds a model tent (A) of a real tent (B). The scale factor from A to B is 5. The model is 30 cm tall. How many cm tall is the real tent?

  3. One row 45 | ?, with the arrow × 2 from A to B. Esme's small kite (A) and big kite (B) are similar. The scale factor from A to B is 2. The small kite is 45 cm wide. How many cm wide is the big kite?

  4. Read this first

    Use the table

    A, cmB, cm
    412 for the matching sides
    6? for the other sides
  5. Kira sketches two similar rectangles for a poster, A and B. A's width is 4 cm and B's matching width is 12 cm. A is 6 cm tall. How many cm tall is B?

  6. Milo draws two similar roof triangles, A and B. A's base is 4 m and B's matching base is 8 m. A's slanted side is 3 m. How many meters long is B's slanted side?

  7. One row 6 | 24 for the matching sides, with a box for the multiplier from A to B. Pia compares two similar toy windows, one with a tiny curtain. A is 6 cm wide and B's matching width is 24 cm. What is the scale factor from A to B?

  8. One row 25 | 200 for the matching sides, with a box for the multiplier from A to B. Zee's dollhouse bed (A), with its tiny pillow, is 25 cm long, and the matching side of the real bed (B) is 200 cm long. What is the scale factor from A to B?

  9. Ari sees two similar tent flaps, A and B. Every side of B is 3 times as long as A's. A has an angle of 50° at the top. How big is B's matching angle?

  10. Bo traces two similar sails, A and B. Every side of B is 2 times as long as A's. A has an angle of 70° at the top. How big is B's matching angle?

  11. Jun builds two similar ramps, A and B. Every side of B is 2 times as long as A's. A has an angle of 11° at the bottom. How big is B's matching angle?
