In a dilation with a scale factor of 3/4 , the image is __________ the preimage.

A.
smaller than and along the same ray as
B.
larger than and along the same ray as
C.
smaller than and along the opposite ray from
D.
larger than and along the opposite ray from

Respuesta :

In two similar geometric figures, the ratio of their corresponding sides is called the scale factor. Note that if the scale factor is less than 1thenthe image points are closer to the center of dilation to create an image smaller than the original. Therefore, option A.

Answer:

A.  smaller than and along the same ray as
