Question

triangle DEF is a dilation of triangle ABC with scale factor 2. In triangle ABC, the largest angle measures 82°. What is the largest angle measure in triangle DEF

Answer 1

DEF = 82°

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

The largest angle measure in triangle DEF = 82°

Step-by-step explanation:

A dilation is a transformation that produces an image that is the same shape as the original, but is a different size.

So, the shape of the triangles ABC and DEF are the same.

Sine the shape is similar the angle of the dilated triangle and considered triangle are the same.

The largest angle measure in triangle DEF = The largest angle measure in triangle ABC

The largest angle measure in triangle DEF = 82°
