**Question 1:**
To calculate the area of the original triangle:
- Area = (Base * Height) / 2
- Area = (8 cm * 3 cm) / 2 = 24 cm²
When dilated by a scale factor of 3:
- New base = 8 cm * 3 = 24 cm
- New height = 3 cm * 3 = 9 cm
Area of the dilated triangle:
- Area = (Base * Height) / 2
- Area = (24 cm * 9 cm) / 2 = 108 cm²
Comparing areas:
- 108 cm² (dilated) / 24 cm² (original) = 4.5 times larger
**Correct response:**
The original triangle has an area of 24 cm² and the dilated triangle has an area of 108 cm²; therefore, the dilated triangle has an area 4.5 times the size of the original triangle.
---
**Question 2:**
To find the areas:
- Area of the original square = 4 units * 4 units = 16 square units
- Area of the dilated square = 6 units * 6 units = 36 square units
Fraction representing the area relationship:
- Area of the dilated square over area of the original square = 36 / 16 = 9/4 (in lowest terms)
**Correct response:**
None of the available responses accurately represent the fraction; however, the closest approximation in terms of numerical values would be **2 (start fraction 1 over 4 end fraction)**.
---
**Question 3:**
Kierra's original triangle has:
- Area = (Base * Height) / 2 = (10 cm * 15 cm) / 2 = 75 cm²
For the dilated triangle with a scale factor of 45:
- New base = 10 cm * 45 = 450 cm
- New height = 15 cm * 45 = 675 cm
- Area of the dilated triangle = (450 cm * 675 cm) / 2 = 151875 cm²
Difference between the areas:
- Difference = 75 cm² (original) - 151875 cm² (dilated) cannot calculate as it shows dilated area is much larger.
Hence, **the response must be evaluated against the original responses available** since the calculations indicate Kierra made a mistake in understanding dilation complex effect on area.
**Correct response:**
75 cm².
---
**Question 4:**
When the sides of a pentagon are dilated by a scale factor less than 1 (meaning the pentagon shrinks):
- The area decreases as the square of the scale factor.
**Correct response:**
The area decreases more rapidly than the lengths of the sides decrease.
---
**Question 5:**
The original triangle has:
- Area = (Base * Height) / 2 = (6 * 4) / 2 = 12 square inches
When dilated by a scale factor of 2.5:
- New base = 6 inches * 2.5 = 15 inches
- New height = 4 inches * 2.5 = 10 inches
Area of the dilated triangle:
- Area = (15 * 10) / 2 = 75 square inches
**Correct response:**
75.
To calculate the area of the original triangle:
- Area = (Base * Height) / 2
- Area = (8 cm * 3 cm) / 2 = 24 cm²
When dilated by a scale factor of 3:
- New base = 8 cm * 3 = 24 cm
- New height = 3 cm * 3 = 9 cm
Area of the dilated triangle:
- Area = (Base * Height) / 2
- Area = (24 cm * 9 cm) / 2 = 108 cm²
Comparing areas:
- 108 cm² (dilated) / 24 cm² (original) = 4.5 times larger
**Correct response:**
The original triangle has an area of 24 cm² and the dilated triangle has an area of 108 cm²; therefore, the dilated triangle has an area 4.5 times the size of the original triangle.
---
**Question 2:**
To find the areas:
- Area of the original square = 4 units * 4 units = 16 square units
- Area of the dilated square = 6 units * 6 units = 36 square units
Fraction representing the area relationship:
- Area of the dilated square over area of the original square = 36 / 16 = 9/4 (in lowest terms)
**Correct response:**
None of the available responses accurately represent the fraction; however, the closest approximation in terms of numerical values would be **2 (start fraction 1 over 4 end fraction)**.

- New height = 15 cm * 45 = 675 cm
- Area of the dilated triangle = (450 cm * 675 cm) / 2 = 151875 cm²
Difference between the areas:
- Difference = 75 cm² (original) - 151875 cm² (dilated) cannot calculate as it shows dilated area is much larger.

**Question 5:**
The original triangle has:
- Area = (Base * Height) / 2 = (6 * 4) / 2 = 12 square inches
When dilated by a scale factor of 2.5:
- New base = 6 inches * 2.5 = 15 inches
- New height = 4 inches * 2.5 = 10 inches
Area of the dilated triangle:
- Area = (15 * 10) / 2 = 75 square inches
**Correct response:**
