Question

AABC is dilated by a factor of 5 to produce AA'B'C!

Answer 1

Given:

Triangle ABC is dilated by a factor of 5 to produce triangle A'B'C'.

To find:

The length of A'C' and the measure of angle A.

Solution:

Since triangle ABC is dilated by a factor of 5. So, A'C' = 5 AC.

So, A'C' = 5(5) = 25.

The dilation does not change the angle of the triangle. So, angle A = 37 degrees.

Thus, option C is correct.
