Question

What's the scale factor of the Dilation

Answer 1

The scale factor is 4

Answer 2

Answer:

so the scale factor of the image is $\frac{1}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find the scale factor of figure A'B'C'D' which is the dilated image of quadrilateral ABCD.

Now we choose a line segment AB and compare it with line segment A'B'.

Since length of AB = 4 units

and length of A'B'  = 1 units

So ratio of AB and A'B' = $\frac{A'B'}{AB}=\frac{1}{4}$

so the scale factor of the image is $\frac{1}{4}$
