Question

What is A'C the length of AC after the dilation? what is the measure of A?AC=15 m

Answer 1

A'C' = 15

The measure of angle A = 37 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a dilation factor of 3, all we need to do is multiply the lengths of the sides of the triangle with 3 which is the scale factor as shown below;

`\begin{gathered} AC=5 \\ A^(\prime)C^(\prime)=5*3=15 \end{gathered}`

After a dilation, the angles remain unchanged, so the measure of angle A will still be 37 degrees.
