Trapezoid WXYZ is shown on the coordinate grid.

Trapezoid WXYZ is dilated with the origin as the center of dilation using the rule (x, y) --> (4x, 4y) to create Trapezoid W'X'Y'Z'.

Which statement is TRUE?

A. Trapezoid W'X'Y'Z' is smaller than Trapezoid WXYZ because the scale factor is less than one.

B. Trapezoid W'X'Y'Z' is smaller than Trapezoid WXYZ because the scale factor is greater than one.

C. Trapezoid W'X'Y'Z' is larger than Trapezoid WXYZ because the scale factor is less than one.

D. Trapezoid W'X'Y'Z' is larger than Trapezoid WXYZ because the scale factor is greater than one.

Yes the answer is D because if it is over 1 on a scale factor then it’s larger and it’s dilated which means bigger

Answer:

D

Explanation:

in the question the scale factor is 4 so that means it is a dilation (getting larger) because the scale factor is >1
