What type of dilation occurs with a scale factor of 14?
The type of dilation that occurs with a scale factor of 14 is enlargement. Any time the scale factor is larger than 1, it is enlargement.
What is the relationship between the vertices of a shape the scale factor and the center of dilation?
None. The vertices, the scale factor as well as the centre of dilation can each be defined independently of the other two. Each different combination will result in a different image.
When applied to a triangle a dilation with a positive scale factor does not preserve what?
length
What are the coordinates of the image of the point (-412) under a dilation with a scale factor of 4 and the center of dilation at the origin?
If the original point was (-4, 12) then the image is (-16, 48).
How is a scale different from a scale factor?
A scale is the ratio of the contracted or dilated form with respect to the original form (the ratio of the sizes before and after the scaling operation). The scale factor is the magnitude of the scaling contraction or dilation (the shrinking or expanding) used in the scaling operation.
