Q. ixl.comis a dilation of the triangle DEF. What is the scale factor ofand write it as a proper fraction, an improper fraction, or
Identify Sizes: Identify the original size and the dilated size of triangle DEF to determine the scale factor.
Define Triangle Sides: Suppose the original triangle DEF has sides of length x, y, and z, and the dilated triangle has sides of length kx, ky, and kz, where k is the scale factor.
Calculate Scale Factor: Divide the length of a side of the dilated triangle by the corresponding side of the original triangle to find the scale factor k.Calculation: k=xkx=yky=zkz
Need Specific Lengths: Since the problem doesn't provide specific lengths, we can't calculate the exact value of k. We need the lengths to find the scale factor.
