The triangle and the dilated figure is attached

What is dilation

Dilation is a geometric transformation that involves resizing or scaling an object by a fixed factor without changing its shape.

Unlike other transformations such as translation (sliding), rotation, or reflection, dilation focuses on altering the size of the object.

When the dilation factor is between 0 < k < 1 this will result to a smaller image. In this case, the dilation factor is 0.5 and the image is less than the preimage
