With respect to the scale factor n, what can you conclude about the ratio of the length of a line segment in an image to its corresponding length in the preimage following a dilation? How is the slope of a line segment in the image affected by this ratio, if at all? Explain.

Edmentum

Answer:

The ratios of the lengths of the line segments in the image to their corresponding lengths in the preimage are equal to the scale factor, n, of the dilation. The slope of the line segments from preimage to image is unchanged by this ratio.
