Question

in a dilation what mathematical operation is used with the scale factor? subtraction addition division multiplication

Explanation:

Dilation is a transformation that resizes a figure. To find the new coordinates or dimensions of the dilated figure, each original measurement (coordinate, side length, etc.) is combined with the scale factor using multiplication. For example, if a point has coordinates $(x,y)$ and the scale factor is $k$, the dilated point is $(kx, ky)$.

Answer:

multiplication
