Answer 1

The dilation of triangle ABC with a scale factor of 5 and a center point of dilation at the origin (0, 0) means that each point of the original triangle ABC will be moved five times farther away from the origin. This results in a new triangle that is five times larger than the original triangle, with the same shape and orientation. The new coordinates of the points in the dilated triangle can be obtained by multiplying the original coordinates by the scale factor of 5.
