Question

Use the image to answer the question.
A rectangle split into four separate and equal boxes shows four illustrations with corresponding labels as follows: Figure 1: chair; figure 2: tree; figure 3: nut; and figure 4: house.
Which scale drawing is a dilation that increased the size of the original object it represents?(1 point)
Figure

Answer 1

I don't have the actual picture content needed to pick one of the four. Could you either upload the image or describe for each figure whether the scale drawing is larger, smaller, or same size as the original?

If you want to decide it yourself, here’s how:
- Pick one corresponding linear measurement on the original and on the scale drawing (e.g. height or width).
- Compute scale factor = (measurement on scale drawing) ÷ (measurement on original).
- If the scale factor > 1, the scale drawing is a dilation that increased the size of the original.

Give me the image or the relative sizes and I’ll pick the correct figure.
