reminder

Dilations are enlargements

(or reductions)!!

A dilation is a transformation that produces an image that is the same shape as the original, but is a different size.

• A dilation that creates a larger image is called an enlargement.

• A dilation that creates a smaller image is called a reduction.

• A dilation stretches or shrinks the original figure.

dipic1

• A description of a dilation includes the scale factor (or ratio) and the center of the dilation.

• The center of dilation is a fixed point in the plane.

• If the scale factor is greater than 1, the image is an enlargement (a stretch).

• If the scale factor is between 0 and 1, the image is a reduction (a shrink).

• If the scale factor is 1, the figure and the image are congruent.

hintgal  

The word "dilate" is often heard in relation to the human eye.

"The pupils of the eye were dilated."

As light hits the eye, the pupil enlarges or contracts

depending upon the amount of light.
