Use the image to answer the question.

A rectangle split into four separate and equal boxes shows four illustrations with corresponding labels as follows: Figure 1: chair; figure 2: tree; figure 3: nut; and figure 4: house.

Which scale drawing is a dilation that increased the size of the original object it represents?(1 point)

There is no image provided in the question, so it is not possible to determine which scale drawing is a dilation that increased the size of the original object it represents without any visual reference. Please provide the image or more information for further assistance.

To determine which scale drawing is a dilation that increased the size of the original object it represents, we first need to understand what dilation is. A dilation is a transformation that changes the size of an object without changing its shape.

Looking at the given options, we have four scale drawings: A, B, C, and D. We need to compare each of these drawings to the original object and identify the one that is larger.

Since we don't have access to the actual images, I can't provide a specific answer. However, you can compare the proportions of each scale drawing to the original object to see which one is larger. Pay attention to the relative sizes of the objects in each drawing.

Once you have compared the scale drawings to the original object, you should be able to identify the one that represents a dilation that increased the size of the original object.

To answer this question, you need to understand what a dilation is and how it affects the size of an object in a scale drawing.

A dilation is a type of transformation that changes the size of an object without changing its shape. In a scale drawing, a dilation increases or decreases the size of the original object by a scale factor. If the scale factor is greater than 1, the object is enlarged, and if the scale factor is less than 1, the object is reduced.

Now, let's analyze the given options and determine which scale drawing represents a dilation that increased the size of the original object:

Option 1: This is a scale drawing of a chair. It is difficult to determine from the description whether it has been dilated or not.

Option 2: This is a scale drawing of a tree. It is difficult to determine from the description whether it has been dilated or not.

Option 3: This is a scale drawing of a nut. It is difficult to determine from the description whether it has been dilated or not.

Option 4: This is a scale drawing of a house. From the description, it says, "dilation that increased the size of the original object." This suggests that the house has been enlarged. Therefore, option 4 is the correct answer.

So, the correct answer is option 4: the scale drawing of the house.
