8.G Tutor Intake -- Transformations, Pythagorean Theorem, and Volume

This short check helps your tutor see where to begin. Answer each question
on your own, without help or a textbook. If you are not sure, give your best
try — the goal is to find what to work on together, not to grade you. You may
use a calculator. Leave answers in terms of pi where asked.

Similarity and Angle Relationships

1

Triangle ABC is similar to triangle DEF, with vertices corresponding
in that order (A↔DA \leftrightarrow D, B↔EB \leftrightarrow E,
C↔FC \leftrightarrow F). Side AB=6AB = 6 corresponds to side DE=9DE = 9.
Side BC=8BC = 8 corresponds to side EFEF. Using the scale factor, find
the length of side EFEF. Enter a number.
