Exercise 2 Page 677

To draw the image of a figure under a dilation with center $M$ and the scale factor $k,$ we need to follow a few steps.

• Step 1: Draw rays from $M$ through each vertex.
• Step 2: Choose one vertex, which we will arbitrarily call $A.$ Locate $A^{\prime }$ on $\overrightarrow{MA}$ such that $M{A}^{\prime }=kMA.$
• Step 3: Repeat Step $2$ for the remaining vertices. Then connect the new vertices to create the image.

Let's draw the dilation of the given figure!
