Question

DEFG is a dilation but mage if DEFG. Which is the correct description of the dilation

Answer 1

EXPLANATION:

We are given the quadrilateral;

$DEFG$

And its dilated to derive the quadrilateral;

$D^{\prime}E^{\prime}F^{\prime}G^{\prime}$

Take note that side;

$\begin{gathered} DE=6units \\ D^{\prime}E^{\prime}=3units \end{gathered}$

That means the dilation from DEFG to D'E'F'G' would be by a factor of 1/2. The center of dilation would be point D.

ANSWER:

$Center\text{ D and scale factor }\frac{1}{2}$
