Hey There!!

The answer to this is: 25 times larger. The scale factor is 5, so each side length of the polygon was multiplied by 5.

Key Idea

If the length of a figure scales by x, then area of the figure scales by x^{2}

The Polygon B is created with a scale factor of 5. So, the area of Polygon B scales by 5^{2}

5^{2} = 5 × 5=25

The area of Polygon B is 25 times larger than the area of Polygon A
