Exercise 43 Page 214

To visualize the exercise, we can draw an example figure. Let it be a square.

We know that the center of dilation is outside the figure, so let's place a point outside the figure and call it $C.$

The given scale factor is $k=120\%,$ which is the same as $1.2.$ Therefore, the dilated figure will be $1.2$ times bigger than the original figure. Keep in mind that both the $\text{dilated}$ $\text{figure}$ and the $\text{original}$ $\text{figure}$ will have the same center.

We can see that the original figure is closer to the center than the image after the dilation.
