Atriangle is dilated with the center of dilation at point u. point e is a vertex of the triangle and point e ′ e' is the corresponding vertex of the image. if ue = 2 centimeters and u ′ e ′ = 10 u'e'=10 centimeters, what is the scale factor?

Step-by-step explanation:

By definition, a Dilation is a transformation in which the image has the same shape as the pre-image but  size changes.

The center of dilation is a fixed point in the plane, and the scale factor is the ratio of the corresponding sides of the image to the pre-image.

Based on the information provided in the exercise, you know that:

Thererefore, you can determine that the scale factor is:
