Identify a Dilation and Find Its Scale Factor
A. Determine whether the dilation from Figure A to Figure B is an enlargement or a reduction. Then find the scale factor of the dilation.
B is smaller than A, so the dilation is a reduction.
The distance between the vertices at (2, 2) and (2, –2) for
A is 4 and from the vertices at (1, 1) and (1, –1) for B is 2.
Answer: So, the scale factor is or . __12

Identify a Dilation and Find Its Scale Factor
B. Determine whether the dilation from Figure A to Figure B is an enlargement or a reduction. Then find the scale factor of the dilation.
B is larger than A, so the dilation is an enlargement.
The distance between the vertices at (3, 3) and (–3, 3) for A is 6 and from the vertices at (1, 1) and (–1, 1) for B is 2.
Answer: So, the scale factor is or 3. __62

Find and Use a Scale Factor
PHOTOCOPYING A photocopy of a receipt is 1.5 inches wide and 4 inches long. By what percent should the receipt be enlarged so that its image is 2 times the original? What will be the dimensions of the enlarged image?
To enlarge the receipt 2 times the original, use a scale factor of 2. Written as a percent, the scale factor is (2 ● 100%) or 200%. Now, find the dimensions of the enlarged receipt.width: 1.5 in. ● 200% = 3 in. length: 4 in. ● 200% = 8 in.
The enlarged receipt will be 3 inches by 8 inches.
A. 15 inches by 25 inches
B. 8 inches by 15 inches
C. 12 inches by 22.5 inches
D. 16 inches by 30 inches
PHOTOGRAPHS Mariano wants to enlarge a picture he took that is 4 inches by 7.5 inches. He wants it to fit perfectly into a frame that is 400% of the original size. What will be the dimensions of the enlarged photo?
Example 3A
Verify Similarity after a Dilation
A. Graph the original figure and its dilated image. Then verify that the dilation is a similarity transformation.
original: A(–6, –3), B(6, –3), C(–6, 6)
image: D(–2, –1), E(2, –1), F(–2, 2)
Graph each figure. Since ∠A and ∠D are both right angles, ∠A ≅ ∠D Show that the lengths of the sides that include ∠A and ∠D are proportional.
Example 3A
Verify Similarity after a Dilation
Answer: Since the lengths of the sides that include ∠M and ∠D are proportional, ΔMNO ~ ΔDFG by SAS Similarity.
