To find the image of a point after dilation, you can use the formula:
\[ D'F' = k \cdot DF \]
where \( k \) is the scale factor.
Let's calculate \( DF \), the distance between points D and F:
\[ DF = \sqrt{(x_F - x_D)^2 + (y_F - y_D)^2} \]
\[ DF = \sqrt{(5 - 1)^2 + (1 - 1)^2} = \sqrt{4^2} = 4 \]
Now, use the dilation formula:
\[ D'F' = 7 \cdot DF = 7 \cdot 4 = 28 \]
So, \( D'F' = 28 \).

Asap please Triangle DEF has vertices at D(−3, 5), E(−10, 4), and F(−2, 2). Triangle D′E′F′ is the image of triangle DEF after a reflection. Determine the line of reflection if F′ is located at (2, 2).
