Question

problem 6 hikmat says that dilating a figure by a scale factor of 1/2 will produce an image that is smaller than the pre - image. is hikmats claim correct? yes no

Explanation:

Step1: Recall dilation rule

When dilating a figure by a scale - factor \(k\), if \(0\lt k\lt1\), the image is smaller than the pre - image.
Here, the scale factor is \(\frac{1}{3}\), and \(0\lt\frac{1}{3}\lt1\).

Answer:

Yes
