The answer choice which is the characteristic of dilations comparing both segments is; A segment in the image is proportionally longer or shorter than its corresponding segment in the pre-image
<h3>Which answer choice compares segment E'F' to segment EF?</h3>
By consider the coordinates of the quadrilaterals EFGH and E'F'G'H' as given in the task content image, it follows that the coordinates are as follows;
E(0, 1), F(1, 1), G(2, 0), and H(0, 0)
E'(-1, 2), F'(1, 2), G'(3, 0), and H'(-1, 0)
Upon computation of the length of the segments, it follows that the two segments are in proportions. Hence, the answer choice which is correct is; A segment in the image is proportionally longer or shorter than its corresponding segment in the pre-image.
Remark:
A segment that passes through the center of dilation in the pre-image continues to pass through the center of dilation in the image.
A segment in the image has the same length as its corresponding segment in the pre-image.
A segment that passes through the center of dilation in the pre-image does not pass through the center of dilation in the image.
A segment in the image is proportionally longer or shorter than its corresponding segment in the pre-image.
The marks or intervals on a ruler are called hash marks. That particular hash mark measures 0 millimeters. Hash marks are used for telling the measurement of an object.
