Select the correct answer. A triangle with vertices at A(0, 0), B(0, 4), and C(6, 0) is dilated to yield a triangle with vertice

s at A′(0, 0), B′(0, 10), and C′(15, 0). The origin is the center of dilation. What is the scale factor of the dilation?

Answer:

* The scale factor of the dilation is 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets talk about dilation

- A dilation is a transformation that changes the size of a figure.

- It can become larger or smaller, but the shape of the

 figure does not change.

- The scale factor, measures how much larger or smaller

 the image will be

- If the scale factor greater than 1, then the image will be larger

- If the scale factor between 0 and 1, then the image will be smaller

* In the problem

- The vertices of the triangle is A (0 , 0) , B (0 , 4) , C (6 , 0)

  and its image A' is (0 , 0) , (0 , 10) , (15 , 0)

∵ 10 ÷ 4 = 2.5

∵ 15 ÷ 6 = 2.5

∴ The scale factor is 2.5

∵ 2.5 > 1

∴ The image of the triangle will be larger

* The scale factor is 2.5

Sonia is standing 20 centimeters from the door.brice is standing 20 meters from the door.who is standing further from the door
Sever21 [200]
Hello!

Brice is standing further away from the door, because 20 metres are greater than 20 centimetres.

A lot greater, actually, because 20 metres = 2,000 centimetres.

Given ABC is similar to DEF and BC = 8, what is the value of EF?
lbvjy [14]

In similar triangles ratios of corresponding sides are constant, so

|AB|/|DE| = |BC|/|EF|

5/10 = 8/|EF|

|EF| = (8*10)/5 = 16

|EF| = 16
