Question

Select from the following choices those graphs that represent only a dilation applied to this polygon with a scale factor great than 1. Select all that apply.

Answer 1

B and C

Explanation:

Required

Select graphs that are dilated by a scale factor greater than 1

For graph A:

Graph A is smaller than the original graph. This indicates dilation with a scale factor less than 1

For graph B:

Graph B is bigger than the original graph and is dilated over (0,0). This indicates dilation with a scale factor greater than 1

For graph C:

Graph C is bigger than the original graph; however, it is not dilated over (0,0). This indicates dilation with a scale factor greater than 1

For graph D:

Graph D is bigger than the original graph; however, it is not only dilated but also flipped over (i.e. rotated).

Hence, b and c is true
