Solution:
As given Square L M NO is dilated by a scale factor of two about the center of the square to create square L'M'N'O'.
Original line of Dilation = Along P Q
New Dilated line = P'Q'
As scale factor > 1
1. Image Size > Pre image size
2. The two images will be similar.
3. Length of Dilated Line P' Q' = 2 × Length of PQ
As you can see from the diagram drawn below, Dilated line P'Q' will contain the point P and Q.
All four points P,Q,Q',P' are collinear , lie in the same line.
Option (2) dilated line P'Q' will contain the points P and Q is true.
