Question

Which description from the list below accurately describes the relationship between

Answer 1

Congruent by dilation

Explanation:

They are not the same size, nor have the same area and are not currently congruent because they are different sizes.

Answer 2

D. Congruent after dilation.

Explanation:

From the figures, you can observe that the triangles don't have the same size or area, that means they cannot be congruent.

However, if we dilate the first triangle by a scale factor of 2, then both triangles will be congruent, because 5 x 2 = 10, 4 x 2 = 8 and 3 x 2 = 6.

Therefore, the right answer is D. Because if you dilate the first triangle, both would be congruent. Also, because they don't have the same area, size, and they aren't congruent.
