Answer and Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the triangle got dilated by a scale factor of 4. This means that the sides are multiplied by 4.
So 6 becomes 24, and 8 becomes 32.
Now, we find the area of the triangle.
24 × 32 = 768
768 ÷ 2 = 384.
The answer is D. 384 square cm.
The answer IS NOT B. 96 square cm, because you don't multiply the area of the triangle before the dilation. The dilation occurs first, and then you have to find the area.
