A triangle is dilated by a scale factor of 3 with the center of dilation at the origin. Which statement is true? 1) The area of the image is nine times the area of the original triangle. 2) The perimeter of the image is nine times the perimeter of the original triangle. 3) The slope of any side of the image is three times the slope of the corresponding side of the original triangle. 4) The measure of each angle in the image is three times the measure of the corresponding angle of the original triangle.
