Question

figure w is a dilation of figure v
where is the center of dilation located?
inside figure v
outside figure v
on a vertex of figure v

Explanation:

When a figure is dilated, the center of dilation is a fixed point. In this case, if we extend the lines connecting corresponding points of figure \(V\) and its dilation \(W\), they will intersect at a point outside figure \(V\). This is because the dilation causes the figure to expand or contract from a point that is not within the original figure \(V\) or on its vertex.

Answer:

outside figure \(V\)
