Find the Scale Factor #3

Don’t skimp on scale factor practice! Find the scale factors of similar figures in this helpful geometry worksheet. These six problems each present students with two polygons—one smaller and one larger. Some side lengths are given, and students will need to use these side lengths to find the factor that would take one polygon to the dimensions of the other. 

This seventh-grade worksheet is perfect practice to make sure students truly understand the concept of similar figures and the relationship they have to each other. Learners will also practice the vital skill of creating and simplifying ratios.
