Segment XY is dilated through point M with a scale factor of 2. Which segment shows the correct result of the dilation?
2 answers:
Answer:
4.DH
Step-by-step explanation:
let's assume the point P to be the point that X will be after it is dilated.
we know that after dilation the length of PM should be two two times the length of XY
PM = 2.XY ===> = 2
and from proportionality theorem we now that:
=
= 2
So we know XY should be half the size of MP and we can see the only line matching is DH thus the answer is DH
