Question

Line segment AB is dilated to create line segment A'B' using point Q as the center of dilation.

Answer 1

The scale factor in the question given above is: 2 See the explanation below.

What is a scale factor?

In math, the scale factor is the extent or ratio by which a geometrical shape is enlarged or reduced.

What is the explanation for the above answer?

We know that:

• The distance from point Q to point A is 1.25
• The distance from point A to point A' is 1.25

Given the above, the distance from point Q to point A' is 2.50. This is double the distance from point Q to point A.

The scale factor is 2.

1.25 + 1.25 = 2.50

2.50 / 1.25 = 2
