Question

parallelogram fghj was dilated and translated to form similar parallelogram fghj. what is the scale factor of the dilation? \\(\frac{1}{8}\\) \\(\frac{1}{4}\\) 4 8

Explanation:

Step1: Identify side lengths

Original parallelogram (FGHJ): base length = 2 units.
Image parallelogram (FG'H'J'): base length = 8 units.

Step2: Calculate scale factor

Scale factor = $\frac{\text{Image length}}{\text{Original length}}$
$\text{Scale factor} = \frac{8}{2} = 4$

Answer:

4
