Triangle ABC with vertices A(4, −6), B(2, −8), and C(−10, 4) is dilated by a scale factor of 2 to obtain triangle A′B′C′. Which statement best describes triangle A′B′C′? (5 points) Group of answer choices

It is congruent to triangle ABC and has coordinates A′(8, −12), B′(4, −16), and C′(−20, 8).
It is congruent to triangle ABC and has coordinates A′(2, −3), B′(1, −4), and C′(−5, 2).
It is similar to triangle ABC and has coordinates A′(8, −12), B′(4, −16), and C′(−20, 8).

Answer:

I believe it is A I may be wrong

It is similar to Triangle ABC and has coordinate A'(8, -12), B'(4, -16), and C' (-20, 8).

Since its getting dilated by 2 it will be getting bigger
