For example look at the point A and its image A`:A ( 3, 1 ) → A` ( 6, 2 )The pattern is:( x, y ) → ( 2 x, 2 y )The same is with all other points.
Therefore the scale factor is 2.Answer:C ) 2

By the scale factor of 1/2 the was octagon ABCDEFGH dilated

What is Octagon?

Any figure bounded by 8 sides is called an Octagon.

How to know by what scale factor was octagon ABCDEFGH dilated ?

According to the problem,

  • We are given the dilation of octagon ABCDEFGH which forms the octagon A'B'C'D'E'F'G'H' as shown in the given figure.
  • To find the scale factor, we need to divide the length of one side of the dilated octagon A'B'C'D'E'F'G'H' by the length of the corresponding side of the original octagon ABCDEFGH.
  • From the figure, we note that GH = 4 units and G'H' = 2 units.

∴The scale factor will be 2/4 = 1/2

Option B is correct.
