A scale factor of 1/2 reduces a figure.

When the dilation has a scale factor greater than one, the dilation is an enlargement.

When the scale factor of a dilation is less than one, the dilation is a reduction.

If a dilation has the rule
$$(x,y)→(2.5x,2.5y)$$  what type of dilation is this?

A polygon is graphed on a coordinate grid with (x,y) representing the location of a certain point on the polygon. The polygon is transformed using the rule (x, y)→(ax, ay). Which statement must be true?

If the triangle ABC is dilated using a scale factor of k=2, what will be the coordinates of A' after the transformation?(Click the picture to zoom in on it)
