A rectangle is reduced by the scale factor of 1/4 which of these choices show the ratio of the area of the smaller to the area of the larger

The area would be 1 : 16 ratio, of the smaller rectangle to the larger one.

Step-by-step explanation:

I used a rectangle with the side length of 1 to model this for me. You can choose any number, but 1 is easy to multiply.

If the original rectangle had a side length of 1 and 1, the area would be 1.

If you reduce the size to 1/4th of the size, the area would be 0.0625, or 1/16th of the original.

I hope this helped!

the answer is b.

step-by-step explanation:

by the trigonometric ratio tangent, tangent equals opposite divided by adjacent.

therefore, tan(50) equals ac/3

multiply each side by 3 to get: ac=3tan(50)

the answer is b.
