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.

I can’t see the image you’re referring to. Could you attach the picture (or describe the four mini-diagrams and any scale numbers shown)?
If you’d rather solve it yourself, here’s how to tell which one is a dilation that increased size:
- A dilation multiplies every length by the same scale factor.
- Measure one convenient distance on the original and the corresponding distance on the scale drawing (or count grid squares if there’s a grid).
- If the corresponding lengths are all larger by the same factor > 1, it’s an enlargement (dilation that increased size).
- If the factor = 1 it’s congruent, if < 1 it’s a reduction.
Send the image or the measured lengths and I’ll pick the correct figure.
