Answer to Problem 16PPS

The dilation from W to W′ is enlargement and the factor of dilation is 1.66 and the value of x is 6 .

Explanation of Solution

The dilation is said to be enlargement is the scale factor is greater than 1 and if smaller than 1 it is a reduction.

Consider the given figure.

The scale factor is calculated as,

  k=FW′FW=106=1.66

The scale factor is greater than 1 so it’s an enlargement.

The value of x is calculated as,

  x=10−4=6

Therefore, the dilation from W to W′ is enlargement and the factor of dilation is 1.66 and the value of x is 6 .
