Question

Triangle ABC is dilated to produce triangle A'B'C' with scale factor3/4.Which describes the relationship between the two triangles?

Answer 1

1) Since a Triangle ABC was dilated to produce another one or the image A'B'C'. The triangle A'B'C' is similar.

2) Dilations produce similar figures, unlike the other geometric transformations that produce congruent ones.

3) So the relationship between the two triangles is called similarity. Each side of triangle A'B'C' is proportional to ABC and their angles are the same.
