Step-by-step explanation

Since we have a dilation with a scale factor of 5/6, the appropriate statement is the following:

1st) Each angle has the same measure as its corresponding angle in the preimage. This is true because the dilations don't change the shape.

II. Each has a measure 5/6 the length of its corresponding side in the pre-image.
