Question

△rst is dilated by a scale factor of 2 to form its image, △rst. (i) when the scale factor is greater than 1, the original figure is closer to the center of dilation. which figure is larger? the original figure the dilated image

Explanation:

Dilation with a scale factor greater than 1 (here, scale factor is 2) means the image is an enlargement of the original figure. So the dilated image (△R′S′T′) will be larger than the original figure (△RST).

Answer:

the dilated image
