2. Dilations

3. Dilation

4. Tell whether the dilation is a reduction or an enlargement.
Example 1
Identify Dilations
Tell whether the dilation is a reduction or an enlargement. a. b.
SOLUTION a.
The dilation is an enlargement because the image (P'Q'R') is larger than the original figure (PQR). b.
The dilation is a reduction because the image (X'Y'Z' ) is smaller than the original figure (XYZ).

5. Find the scale factor of the dilation.
Example 2
Find Scale Factors
Find the scale factor of the dilation. b. a.
SOLUTION
Find the ratio of CP' to CP. a.
scale factor = CP
CP' = 3 2 b.
scale factor = CP
CP' = 3 6
= 2

enlargement; 2
ANSWER 2.
ANSWER
reduction; 3 1 3.
ANSWER
reduction; 7 3

7. P'Q'R' is the image of PQR after a reduction. Find the value of x.
Example 3
Dilations and Similar Figures
P'Q'R' is the image of PQR
after a reduction.
Find the value of x.
SOLUTION
Write a proportion. CP
CP' = QR
Q'R' 14 8 = x 6
Substitute 8 for CP', 14 for CP, 6 for Q' R', and x for QR.
8 · x = 14 · 6
Cross product property
8x = 84
Multiply.
x = 10.5
Divide each side by 8.
