Respuesta :
If the dimensions of a figure are doubled, then the area of the figure is quadrupled.
Answer:
Quadrupled
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us consider rectangle be a figure whose dimensions are [tex]a and b[/tex].
Then, the area of the rectangle will be:
[tex]A=a{\times}b[/tex]
[tex]A=ab square units[/tex]
Now, If we double the dimensions of the rectangle that is [tex]2a and 2b[/tex], then the area of the rectangle will become:
[tex]A=2a{\times}2b[/tex]
[tex]A=4ab square units[/tex]
Therefore, if we double the dimensions of the rectangle, the area becomes quadrupled.
Thus, If the dimensions of a figure are doubled, then the area of the figure is Quadrupled.
