Answer : The scale factor is 2
Triangle TUV has the following coordinates
T (-2, -3) , U(0, 1), V (2, -3)
It is transformed into triangle XYZ
X(-4, -6), Y(0, 2), Z(4, -6)
The order of pair can be represented as (x, y)
For cordinate T and its corresponding transformation
[tex]\begin{gathered} T(-2,\text{ -3) and X(-4, -6)} \\ \text{Let x 1 = -2, y1 = 3, x2 = -4 and y2 = -6} \\ \text{Scale factor =}\frac{y2}{y1}\text{ or }\frac{x2}{x1} \\ \text{Scale factor = }\frac{-6}{-3}\text{ or }\frac{-4}{-2} \\ \text{Scale factor = }2 \end{gathered}[/tex]The same proccess is applicable to the other coordinates of the triangle and it corresponding sides
The transfolrmation of Triangle TUV to triangle XYZ is a dilation with a scale factor of 2
