Line A'C' will be twice as long as AC

Line P'Q' will be twice as long as PQ

1) Considering that there was a dilation whose scale factor is k=2, (an enlargement since k > 1).

2) Then we can state that:

Line A'C' will be twice as long as AC

Line P'Q' will be twice as long as PQ

Due to the dilation with a scale factor of 2.
