Question

a dilation with a scale factor between 0 and 1 is a(n) select choice, while a dilation with a scale factor greater than 1 is a(n) select choice

Explanation:

Step1: Recall Dilation Concepts

Dilation is a transformation that changes the size of a figure. If the scale factor \( k \) satisfies \( 0 < k < 1 \), the image is smaller than the original (reduction). If \( k > 1 \), the image is larger than the original (enlargement).

Step2: Determine First Blank

For scale factor between 0 and 1, it's a reduction.

Step3: Determine Second Blank

For scale factor greater than 1, it's an enlargement.

Answer:

First blank: reduction; Second blank: enlargement
