The dashed figure is a dialation of the original figure. Find the scale factor. Classify the dialation as an enlargement or a reduction. (3,8), (8,8) is the measurements of the small triangle with the tip at (8,8) Then the dotted line goes from(2,6)

A.2,enlargement
B. 1/3,reduction
C. 1/2 reduction
D. 3, enlargement
Is the answer D?

Allow me to assist any fellow students from Connexus.♠

Number 1: 3;enlargement♠
Number 2: 1/2♠
Number 3: 8.75♠
Number 4: Lastly, it would be 560 millimeters♠

Yes! correct! Good job.

To find the scale factor of a dilation, you need to compare the corresponding side lengths of the original figure and the dilated figure. In this case, we have the measurements of the small triangle and need to compare them with the measurements of the corresponding sides in the original figure.

The distance between points (3,8) and (8,8) represents the base of the small triangle. It has a length of 8 - 3 = 5 units.
The dotted line from (2,6) is not provided in relation to the small triangle or the original figure, so it is not relevant to finding the scale factor.

To determine if the dilation is an enlargement or a reduction, compare the lengths of the corresponding sides. If the lengths are greater in the dilated figure, it is an enlargement. If the lengths are smaller, it is a reduction.

Without knowing the measurements of the corresponding sides in the original figure, we can't directly determine the scale factor or classify the dilation as an enlargement or a reduction. Therefore, the correct answer cannot be determined from the given information.

So, the answer cannot be D.

wow, she actually posted the question 3 times for the answer
