Which statement about a dilation with a scale factor of 3 is true? a. three is added to each side in the pre-image to find the corresponding side length in the image. b . three is subtracted from each side in the pre-image to find the corresponding side length in the image. c. each side in the pre-image is multiplied by three to find the corresponding side length in the image. d. each side in the pre-image is divided by three to find the corresponding side length in the image.

The correct answer is C.

A dilation is when you change the overall shape of a figure by a multiplicative.

If you dilate something by a factor of x, you're multiplying each side by x.

C.

Each side in the pre-image is multiplied by three to find the corresponding side length in the image.  

Step-by-step explanation:

A dilation is a type of transformation that stretches or reduces a figure which is known as the pre-image to produce a new figure known as the image.

The rule to dilate a figure is to multiply the scale factor to the sidelengths of the pre-image to get the side-length of the image .

Hence, C is the right option.

If 3 is the scale factor, then each side in the pre-image is multiplied by three to find the corresponding side length in the image.
