Illustrative Math Grade 7 Unit 1 Review

Front

What is a scale factor in geometry?

Back

A scale factor is a number that scales, or multiplies, some quantity. In geometry, it is used to determine the size of a scaled copy of a shape compared to the original shape.

If a shape is scaled by a factor of 3, how does its perimeter change?

Back

The perimeter of the shape will also be multiplied by the scale factor. If the original perimeter is P, the new perimeter will be 3P.

If the shortest side of a quadrilateral is scaled down to 2, how do you find the new perimeter?

Back

First, find the scale factor by dividing the new shortest side by the original shortest side, then multiply the original perimeter by this scale factor.

What is a scaled copy in geometry?

Back

A scaled copy is a figure that is similar to another figure but is a different size, created by multiplying the dimensions of the original figure by a scale factor.
