explain what relation a dilated figure has to its original. (1 point)
1 answer
When a figure is dilated, it means that it is enlarged or reduced proportionally. The dilated figure maintains the same shape as the original figure, but its size changes. The size of the dilated figure is either larger or smaller depending on the scale factor used for dilation. In addition, the dilated figure and the original figure are similar, meaning that their corresponding angles are congruent and their corresponding sides are proportional.
