A triangle with an area of 101 unitssquared
2
is dilated by a scale factor of 2. Find the area of the triangle after dilation. Round your answer to the nearest tenth, if necessary.
When a figure is dilated by a scale factor of 2, the area is scaled by the square of the scale factor.
Given that the original area is 101 units^2, the area after dilation would be:
101 * 2^2 = 101 * 4 = 404 units^2
Therefore, the area of the triangle after dilation is 404 units^2.
