Question

triangle m is the image of triangle m under a dilation.
image of a grid with two triangles (m in pink, m in blue) and points a, b, c, d
what is the center of the dilation?
choose 1 answer:
a
b
c
d

Explanation:

Step1: Recall dilation center property

The center of dilation is the point through which all lines connecting corresponding vertices of the original and dilated figures pass.

Step2: Check lines through corresponding vertices

Draw (or imagine) lines connecting corresponding vertices of triangle \( M \) and \( M' \). These lines should intersect at the center of dilation. By examining the positions, the lines from corresponding vertices of \( M \) and \( M' \) intersect at point \( B \).

Answer:

B. \( B \)
