The image above shows two dilated figures with lines IJ and KL drawn. If the smaller figure was dilated using a scale factor of 2, what relationship do lines IJ and KL have?

Answer :

Answer:

The relationship is [tex]IJ=2KL[/tex]

IJ is two  times KJ

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional and this ratio is called the scale factor

Let

z ------> the scale factor

[tex]z=\frac{IJ}{KL}[/tex]

we have

[tex]z=2[/tex]

substitute

[tex]2=\frac{IJ}{KL}[/tex]

[tex]IJ=2KL[/tex]

therefore

IJ is two times KJ
