Even though the size of the image changed, which statement below explains why this is NOT an example of a dilation? (NOT similar figures)

the width increased in size, but the height did not change at all (they must change the same way)

the width of the image got larger, not smaller

this is a dilation actually, because the image increased 3 times the original size

these are not a dilation, because the two images are congruent
