Rectangle ABCD is similar to rectangle JKLM. AB = 12, BC = 8, CD = 12, DA = 8, and JK = 15. What is the scale factor from JKLM to ABCD? Reduce all answers.

4/5 or 0.8

Step-by-step explanation:

this problem description is not very precise. it leaves out the definition what corners or sides of JKLM correspond to corners and sides of ABCD.

I assume J and K correlate to A and B, and JK is a long side of JKLM.

so, we are going from JKLM to ABCD.

that means we are going from larger to smaller (as JK = 15 and therefore larger than AB = 12).

what is the scale factor to go from 15 to 12 ?

15 × x = 12

x = 12/15 = 4/5 or 0.8

answer: d. $20

just took the test

for me what is finding a good play list and going out because i can not lay down and relax so i usually go to a coffee shop. i also use the gum trick and this actually works. another advice is highlighting subjects it really does me remember certain things
