Polygon CCC has an area of 404040 square units. Kennan drew a scaled version of Polygon CCC using a scale factor of \dfrac12 2 1 start fraction, 1, divided by, 2, end fraction and labeled it Polygon DDD. What is the area of Polygon DDD?
The area of polygon D is given by: Ad = k ^ 2 * Ac Where, k: scale factor Ac: area of polygon C Substituting the values we have: Ad = (1/2) ^ 2 * (40) Ad = (1/4) * (40) Ad = 10 square units Answer: the area of Polygon D is: Ad = 10 square units
