If \(\triangle ABC \sim \triangle DEF\) and the scale factor from \(\triangle ABC\) to \(\triangle DEF\) is 2, what are the lengths of \(\overline{DE}\), \(\overline{EF}\), and \(\overline{DF}\), respectively?

Step 1
The scale factor between lengths of 6E, EF, and from AABC to ADEF is 2. This means that the length of 6E is multiplied by 2 to get the length of EF, and the length of AABC is also multiplied by 2 to get the length of ADEF. So, if the length of 6E is x, then Show more…
