Question

Two circles are shown in the diagram. The circle with center B is a dilation of the circle with center A using scale factor 3. l = 3? L = 9? ? A 4 B 12 ? a) A. The angle marked ? measures 12/8? radians. b) A. The value of ? is greater than the value of ? by a factor of 3. c) The circumference of the circle centered at B is greater than the circumference of the circle centered at A by a factor of 3. d) A. The ratio L/R is greater than the ratio l/r by a factor of 3.

Step 1

Dilation in geometry means resizing an object by a scale factor, which affects all dimensions proportionally. In this case, the circle with center B is a dilation of the circle with center A using a scale factor of 3. This means every linear dimension of circle B Show more…
