Dilations to Get New Coordinates

Which of the statements is true about the graphed triangles?

• They are similar, because one can be obtained by dilating the other about the origin with a scale factor of 2.

• They are similar, because one can be obtained by dilating the other about the origin with a scale factor of 1/2.

• They are not similar, because one can be obtained by dilating the other about the origin with a scale factor of 2.

• They are not similar, because one can be obtained by dilating the other about the origin with a scale factor of 1/2.
