Does the dilation pass through the center of dilation choose the best answer below

Answer 1

Yes, a dilation always passes through the center of dilation. When a figure is dilated from a center of dilation, each point of the figure moves along a line that passes through the center of dilation, and the distance from the center to the new point is a multiple of the distance from the center to the original point, based on the scale factor of the dilation.
