Triangle QRS is shown on the coordinate grid. Triangle QRS is dilated with the origin as the center of dilation using the rule (x, y) → ( 1/4 x, 1/4 y) to create triangle Q'R'S'. Which statement is true? A) Triangle Q'R'S' is smaller than triangle QRS, because the scale factor is less than 1. B) Triangle Q'R'S' is larger than triangle QRS, because the scale factor is less than 1. C) Triangle Q'R'S' is larger than triangle QRS, because the scale factor is greater than 1. D) Triangle Q'R'S' is smaller than triangle QRS, because the scale factor is greater than 1.

Answer:

A

Explanation:
