How can you tell that this transformation is a dilation?

Answer
A
The figure flipped upside down.
B
The figure changed size.
C
The figure completed a half turn.
D
The figure did not change.

A dilation changes the size of a figure by enlarging or reducing it. It preserves the figure’s shape, while a flip or half turn changes its orientation. So the correct choice is “The figure changed size.”
