Question

quadrilateral GEOM is dilated by a scale factor of 2 centered at (0,0) to create quadrilateral G'E'O'M' select all the statements that are ture about the dilation .

Answer 1

For a dilation the sizes of the segments will change, so a, c and d can't be correct.

Option b is one of the correct ones, because it is said that dilation is by a scale factor of 2, so the new segments must be twice as the original ones.

On the other hand, option e is correct to, because the figure must be similar (meaning it must have the same shape). Therefore, slopes of the new segments of the figure must be the same as the original ones.
