<span>Dilations produce similar figures because the image and pre-image will have congruent corresponding angles. The corresponding side lengths of the figures will be proportional based on the scale factor. The shape is preserved and the sides are enlarged or reduced by the scale factor.

A dilation can elongate or diminish a figure. It can create an image the same as the original by using a scale factor. The scale factor of a dilation is the ratio of corresponding side lengths.  To dilate a polygon, multiply the coordinates of each vertex by the scale factor k and connect the vertices.

Hey please help me with this one.<br><br>- Find the value fd a
valkas [14]

Answer: a = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

6a + 10 = 3a + 55

Subtract 10 from both sides

6a = 3a + 45

Subtract 3a from both sides

3a = 45

Divide each side by 3

a = 15
