Answer: The correct option is (A). 3.
Step-by-step explanation: We are given to find the scale factor of dilation from ΔABC to ΔDEF.
As shown in the figure, the lengths of the sides of ΔABC to ΔDEF are
AB = 5 units, BC = 4 units, CA = 3 units,
DE = 15 units, EF = 12 units, FD = 9 units.
We know that the scale factor is given by
Therefore, the scale factor of dilation from from ΔABC to ΔDEF is
Thus, the required scale factor is 3.
Option (A) is correct.
