A rectangle is dilated by a scale factor of n = 1. Which statement is true regarding the image of the dilation?

A dilation with a scale factor of 1 leaves every distance unchanged: each side length is multiplied by 1. Therefore, the image has the same size and shape as the original rectangle and is congruent to it. The correct choice is B, “The image will be congruent to the pre-image because n = 1.”
