Answer:
Scale factor = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter of the actual flag = 22 in.
Perimeter of the scale drawing of the flag = 11 in.
Since, perimeter of a triangle = Sum of all three sides of the given triangle
Therefore, scale factor of the drawing
= [tex]\frac{\text{Measure of the side of drawing}}{\text{Measure of the side of actual}}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{\text{Perimeter of drawing}}{\text{Perimeter of actual}}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{11}{22}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Therefore, scale factor of the drawing will be [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex].
Each side of the scaled triangle will be half of the actual triangle.
