Question
If you dilate a circle of radius 2 mm with a scale factor of 50, what will be the radius of the dilated circle?(1 point)
mm

Answer 1

To find the radius of a dilated circle, you multiply the original radius by the scale factor.

Given:
- Original radius = 2 mm
- Scale factor = 50

Dilated radius = Original radius × Scale factor
Dilated radius = 2 mm × 50 = 100 mm

So, the radius of the dilated circle will be **100 mm**.
