Answer:

Check below

Explanation:

Hi there, since there's no picture of the geometric figure. Let me answer it in principles.

That'll depend on where is the point of of dilation, also called dilation center, if it's in the center of the geometric shape, then all line segments of the polygon will be multiplied by the scale factor, in this case 3.

(Check the first figure)

If the dilation center is not in center but in one vertex or another, then the scale factor will help us to calculate the distance between the points of the figure and the new dilated figure.

(Check picture 2)

If the scale factor For the dilation shown is 3 which is the length of b’c’-example-1
