Match the correct scale factor to each dilation.
Will give 100 points and will mark brainiest.



Answer:
[tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] , 3 , 3
Step-by-step explanation:
The scale factor is the ratio of corresponding sides, image to original
scale factor = [tex]\frac{K'M'}{KM}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{2.5}{5}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
-------------------------------------------
scale factor = [tex]\frac{S'Q'}{SQ}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{6}{2}[/tex] = 3
-------------------------------------------
scale factor = [tex]\frac{L'H'}{LH}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{6}{3}[/tex] = 2
-------------------------------------------
Answer:
a) Scale factor 2
b) Scale factor 0.5
c) Scale factor 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Dilation is a transformation that resizes a figure by a scale factor, maintaining the shape but altering its size.
To calculate the scale factor of dilation, divide the length of a side of the dilated image by the length of the corresponding side in the original pre-image.
In the given diagram, triangle H'I'J' is the image, and triangle HIJ is the pre-image. Given that H'I' = 6 and HI = 3, then:
[tex]\textsf{Scale factor}=\dfrac{H'I'}{HI}=\dfrac{6}{3}=2[/tex]
This means that the side lengths of triangle H'I'J' are twice as long as the corresponding side lengths of the triangle HIJ.
In the given diagram, triangle K'L'M' is the image, and triangle KLM is the pre-image. Given that K'M' = 2.5 and KM = 5, then:
[tex]\textsf{Scale factor}=\dfrac{K'M'}{KM}=\dfrac{2.5}{5}=0.5[/tex]
This means that the side lengths of triangle K'L'M' are half as long as the corresponding side lengths of the triangle KLM.
In the given diagram, triangle Q'R'S' is the image, and triangle QRS is the pre-image. Given that Q'S' = 6 and QS = 2, then:
[tex]\textsf{Scale factor}=\dfrac{Q'S'}{QS}=\dfrac{6}{2}=3[/tex]
This means that the side lengths of triangle Q'R'S' are three times as long as the corresponding side lengths of the triangle QRS.
