Answer:

  12 units

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to know the perimeter of rectangle ABCD after it has been dilated by a factor of 1.

Perimeter

The original rectangle ABCD has a perimeter of ...

  P = 2(L +W) = 2(4 +2) = 12

The perimeter of the dilated rectangle is the original perimeter multiplied by the dilation factor:

  P' = 12·1 = 12

The dilated rectangle has a perimeter of 12 units.

Additional comment

Dilation by a factor of 1 changes nothing at all. The center of dilation is irrelevant.
