Question

с C' B' A B D' D The distance from A to B is 10 and the distance from A to B'is 2. What is the scale factor? 1/5 4 5 1/4

Answer 1

In this problem, we have that

the center of the dilation is pointed A ----> because the intersection segments c

so

the scale factor is equal to

scale factor=AB'/AB

substitute given values

scale=2/10

scale =1/5
