If a dilation was performed so that the scale factor from AMY to MEG is 1/3, then the perimeter of MEG will be 5 units

Dilation

Given the sides of the triangle AMY given as:

  • AM=5
  • MY=7 and;
  • AY=3

scale factors

If the scale factor from AMY to MEG is 1/3, then the sides of triangle MEG will be:

ME = 5/3

EG = 7/3

MG = 3/3

The perimeter of MEG = ME + G + MG

The perimeter of MEG = 5/3 + 7/3 +3/3

The perimeter of MEG = 15/3

The perimeter of MEG = 5 units

Hence the perimeter of MEG is 5 units
