Question

A dilation is a transformation where the *blank 1* don't change, but all side lengths are *blank 2* by the same number called the *blank 3*

Options for blank 1
A side lengths
B angle measures

Options for blank 2
A multipled
B subtracted
C duplicated
D added

Options for blank 3
A variable
B scale factor
C coefficient
D exponent

Answer 1

Here's how to fill in the blanks for the statement about dilation:

A dilation is a transformation where the **blank 1** don't change, but all side lengths are **blank 2** by the same number called the **blank 3**.

1. **Blank 1**: B angle measures (because in a dilation, the angles remain the same)
2. **Blank 2**: A multiplied (because the side lengths are multiplied by the scale factor)
3. **Blank 3**: B scale factor (the number by which the side lengths are multiplied)

So, the completed statement is:

A dilation is a transformation where the **angle measures** don't change, but all side lengths are **multiplied** by the same number called the **scale factor**.
