Answer:

For a dilation, corresponding angles of the image and pre-image are congruent.

A dilation with a scale factor of 4 is an enlargement.

Step-by-step explanation:

A dilation is is a transformation that stretches or shrinks a figure to create a similar figure. From the given statements, the ones true are:

For a dilation, corresponding angles of the image and pre-image are congruent.

A dilation with a scale factor of 4 is an enlargement.

The remaining choices are false since:

Since dilation changes the size of the image since it shrinks or enlarges the image. Isometry refers to the transformation of the image while retaining its size and shape.

If the scale factor is a positive number greater than 1, the image created should be enlarged.

A dilation could have any points common with its pre-image
