he scale factor of the dilation is 1.

The scale factor is the ratio of the corresponding side lengths of the pre-image (triangle ABC) and the image (triangle A’B’C’). In this case, all the corresponding side lengths of the two triangles are the same. For example, AA’ = 8, BB’ = 8, and CC’ = 8. Therefore, the scale factor is 1.
