To find the scale factor used to enlarge the second rectangle, we can compare the corresponding sides of both rectangles.
The original rectangle has a base length of 5 inches, while the enlarged rectangle has a length of 9 inches.
Therefore, the scale factor used to enlarge the rectangle is 9/5, which simplifies to 1.8.
So, the scale factor used to enlarge the rectangle in the image is 1.8.
