A rectangle is dilated by a scale factor of 4.
a) The original rectangle is 8 cm by 3 cm. What are the dimensions of the new rectangle?
b) Is the new image a reduction or enlargement? Explain.

Respuesta :

A) The new dimensions would be 32cm by 12cm.
B) This is an enlargement.

To find the new dimensions, multiply the original dimensions by the scale factor.  8*4=32 and 3*4=12.

This is an enlargement because the copy is larger than the original.
