In mathematics, dilation refers to a transformation that alters the size of a geometric figure while keeping its shape and proportions intact. It involves scaling the figure up or down from a fixed point known as the center of dilation, using a scale factor that determines how much the figure is enlarged or reduced. Dilation can be applied in various contexts, including geometry and coordinate transformations.
To increase in size. You use the dilation property in coordinative graphs.
