Question

figure cdef is dilated to form its image, figure cdef. when the center of dilation is outside the original figure, it is also outside the image. when the center of dilation is inside the original figure, it is also inside the image. which point is the center of dilation? point a point b point c

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the property of dilation center

The center of dilation is the fixed point through which the lines connecting corresponding points of the original figure and its image pass.

Step2: Check the lines connecting corresponding points

For example, connect \(C\) and \(C'\), \(D\) and \(D'\), \(E\) and \(E'\), \(F\) and \(F'\). These lines all pass through point \(A\).

Answer:

A. point \(A\)
