What is a dilation?
A transformation that makes a figure either bigger or smaller than its original image.
What is slope?
A number you can calculate using any two points on the line by dividing the vertical distance by the horizontal distance.
What do you call a fixed point on a plane that's the starting point from which distances are measured in dilation?
Scale Factor
What is it called when one figure can fit exactly over another figure after rigid transformations and dilations occur?
