Question

where is the center of dilation located? inside figure lmno outside figure lmno on a vertex of figure lmno

Explanation:

Step1: Recall dilation concept

Dilation is a transformation that changes the size of a figure. The center of dilation is a fixed - point.

Step2: Examine the figure

By observing the figure of parallelogram \(LMNO\) and its dilated image \(L'M'N'O'\), we can see that the lines connecting corresponding vertices (e.g., \(L\) and \(L'\), \(M\) and \(M'\), etc.) intersect at a point outside the figure \(LMNO\).

Answer:

outside figure \(LMNO\)
