12-7 Dilations
Definition:
Dilation is a transformation that changes the
size of a figure but not the shape. The image
and the preimage of a figure under a dilation
are similar. Dilation is a non-Rigid
transformation.

Example 1: Identifying Dilations
Tell whether each transformation appears to
be a dilation. Explain.
A.
No; the figures are not
similar.
Holt Geometry
B.
Yes; the figures are
similar and the image is
not turned or flipped.

Holt Geometry
Yes, the figures are
similar and the image
is not turned or
flipped.

Helpful Hint
For a dilation with scale factor k, if k > 0, the
figure is not turned or flipped. If k < 0, the figure
is rotated by 180°.

A dilation enlarges or reduces all dimensions
proportionally. A dilation with a scale factor
greater than 1 is an enlargement, or expansion.
A dilation with a scale factor greater than 0 but
less than 1 is a reduction, or contraction.

Example 2: Drawing Dilations
Copy the figure and the center of dilation P.
Draw the image of ∆WXYZ under a dilation
with a scale factor of 2.
Step 1 Draw a line through
P and each vertex.
Step 2 On each line,
mark twice the
distance from P to the
vertex.
Step 3 Connect the
vertices of the image.

Example 3: Drawing Dilations
On a sketch of a flower, 4 in. represent 1 in.
on the actual flower. If the flower has a 3 in.
diameter in the sketch, find the diameter of
the actual flower.
The scale factor in the dilation is 4, so a 1 in. by 1
in. square of the actual flower is represented by a
4 in. by 4 in. square on the sketch.
Let the actual diameter of the flower be d in.
3 = 4d
d = 0.75 in.

If the scale factor of a
dilation is negative, the
preimage is rotated by
180°. For k > 0, a dilation
with a scale factor of –k is
equivalent to the
composition of a dilation
with a scale factor of k that
is rotated 180° about the
center of dilation.
