triangle mno is dilated to create triangle mno.
which one of the following statements is
not true about the angles of the two triangles?
a the measure of angle m is congruent to the measure of angle m.
b the measure of angle o is congruent to the measure of angle o.
c each pair of corresponding angles of triangles mno and mno are not congruent because triangle mno was dilated by a scale factor of $\frac{1}{2}$ to create triangle mno.
d each pair of corresponding angles of triangles mno and mno are congruent even though triangle mno was dilated by a scale factor of $\frac{1}{2}$ to create triangle mno.
Dilation is a transformation that changes the size of a figure but preserves its shape, meaning all corresponding angles of the original and dilated figures are congruent regardless of the scale factor. Options A, B, and D correctly state that corresponding angles are congruent. Option C incorrectly claims corresponding angles are not congruent due to dilation, which contradicts the properties of dilation.

C. Each pair of corresponding angles of triangles MNO and M'N'O' are not congruent because triangle MNO was dilated by a scale factor of 1/2 to create triangle M'N'O'.
