Area of a triangle is 1/2 x base x height.

The graphed triangle has height of 2 and base of 2.

Area = /2 x 2 x 2 = 2 square units.

The triangle gets enlarged by a scale factor of 2, so the new height would be 2 x 2 = 4 and the new base would be 2 x 2 = 4

Area of enlarged triangle = 1/2 x 4 x 4 = 8 square units.

The answer is C) 8
