Answer 1

Answer:

Triangle D'E'F' is smaller than triangle DEF, because the scale factor is less than 1.

Explanation:

If the scale factor is greater than 1, the image is an enlargement.

If the scale factor is between 0 and 1, the image is a reduction.

plus, I had this question on usatestprep.

Answer 2

Answer:

Triangle D'E'F' is smaller than triangle DEF, because the scale factor is less than 1.

Explanation:

• If the scale factor is greater than 1, the image is an enlargement.

• If the scale factor is between 0 and 1, the image is a reduction.
