???

OpenStudy (amorfide):

do you know the definition of dialating?

OpenStudy (amorfide):

coz that would answer your question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That's not how it works here, we will help you figure out the problem but not give you the answer itself. So if you have a dilation you change the size, but it has the same proportions. |dw:1426466959100:dw|
