Question 6

Elijah was trying to determine whether one triangle is a dilation of the other. Which statements about his solution are true? Check all that apply.Elijah’s work: 3 is not a factor of 5, so it must be a relationship with addition. Therefore, the triangles are not proportional and cannot form a dilation.

Revolt · Accepted Answer

Elijah did not know that scale factors can be fractions or decimals greater than zero.; Elijah did not know that dilations are proportional and the relationships are multiplicative, not additive.; Elijah should have compared the ratios to determine if they are equivalent.
