Question
Two rectangular banners from this year’s music festival are shown. Organizers of next year’s festival want to design a new banner that will be similar to the banner whose dimensions are given in the photograph. The length of the longest side of the new banner will be 5 feet. Find the area of the new banner.
- 8.33
- 9.33
- 10.66
- 7.55
Hint:
Area = square of corresponding side length
The correct answer is: 8.33
Area of the old banner = 3 × 1 = 3 square feet
A = 8.3 square ft.

¶Perimeters: The scale factor and the perimeters' ratios are identical. The scale factor is the same for any ratio between two similar shapes (diagonals, medians, midsegments, altitudes, etc.).
Area: The area is the region defined by an object's shape. The area of an object shape is the space covered by a figure or any two-dimensional geometric shape in a plane. All shapes' areas are determined by their dimensions and properties. Different shapes have various areas.Area of Rectangle = a × b
