\n" ); document.write( "The SCALE FACTOR between similar figures is the ratio of the lengths of any corresponding linear measurements in the two figures.

\n" ); document.write( "Pick the lengths of any corresponding sides in the given figure and form the ratio.

\n" ); document.write( "Note that the question specifies the scale factor from larger triangle to smaller, so make sure you put the two lengths you choose in that correct order.

\n" ); document.write( "Expressing the ratio in simplest terms is optional, unless instructions somewhere state that it is required.
