Understanding Dilation: Formula and Scale Factor Explained**

Dilation is a transformative geometric operation that alters the size of a figure while preserving its shape. The formula for dilation can be expressed as: Image = Original × Scale Factor (k). In this context, the "original" figure is either enlarged or reduced to create a new figure known as the "image." Understanding how to apply the scale factor allows you to conceptualize the relationship between the original and dilated figures and grasp the fundamentals of geometric transformations. Explore how these concepts apply in various mathematical contexts!
