Question

Triangle ABC was dilated by 50%. What is the relationship between AC and A'C'?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Word "dilation" basically means to widen or enlarge. So dilated by 50% means half of the length of AC is added more to AC to produce A'C'. Hence A'C' will be 1.5 times the length of AC.

Answer 2

Answer:

Triangle ABC was dilated by 50%" means the side lengths have been cut in half .

So A′C′=  $\frac{1}{2}$ × AC (A'C' is half of AC)
