1. **State the problem:** We need to find the scale factor of enlargement from the smaller shape to the larger shape in each case.
2. **Formula and rule:** The scale factor of enlargement is the ratio of any corresponding linear lengths in the larger shape to the smaller shape.
3. **Example for shape R to T:**
- Shape R covers 1 grid square horizontally and vertically.
- Shape T covers approximately 4 grid squares horizontally and vertically.
- Scale factor $= \frac{\text{length in larger shape}}{\text{length in smaller shape}} = \frac{4}{1} = 4$
4. **General explanation:** To find the scale factor, measure a corresponding side length in the smaller shape and the same side in the larger shape, then divide the larger by the smaller.
5. **For other shapes (A to B, P to Q):**
- Count the number of small squares or measure lengths on the grid.
- Calculate the ratio of lengths.
6. **Summary:** The scale factor is the multiplier that enlarges the smaller shape to the larger one.
**Final answers:**
- Scale factor from shape A to B (triangles): depends on grid lengths, e.g., if smaller side is 1 and larger is 3, scale factor is 3.
- Scale factor from shape P to Q: similarly calculated by length ratio.
- Scale factor from shape R to T: 4.
Each problem requires measuring corresponding sides and dividing larger by smaller to find the scale factor.
