Tiffany sees this given dilation and claims that the scale factor is 2 because 4 is twice as big as 2. Is this a scale factor of 2? Explain.

The scale factor is not 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for the dilated triangles

Triangle ABC is dilated through center point O to form triangle A'B'C'.

From the attachment, we have:

i.e. the distance from the center point to C

and

i.e. the distance from the center point to C'

The length of OC' is calculated using:

The scale factor (k) is then calculated by dividing OC' by OC

Hence, Tiffany's claim is incorrect.
