The video tutorial covers the concept of dilations in the coordinate plane, explaining how objects can be enlarged or reduced while maintaining their shape. It introduces the idea of scale factor, which determines the degree of enlargement or reduction. The tutorial provides a practical example of applying a scale factor to coordinates to demonstrate how figures change size. Additionally, it discusses similar triangles and how to find their coordinates using proportions, emphasizing the importance of matching corresponding sides and angles.

What is a dilation in the context of geometry?

• A transformation that rotates a figure

• A transformation that translates a figure

• A transformation that changes the size of a figure

• A transformation that changes the shape of a figure
