Square RSTU is shown below with a line AB drawn through its center. If the square is dilated using a scale factor of one over four and a line is drawn through the center of the new dilated figure, what relationship will that line have with line AB in the drawing below?

Can you explain to me why the line stays the same? its a short response question
Mehek (mehek14):
because the center of the rectangle stays the same
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Thats all?
Mehek (mehek14):
you need more?
Mehek (mehek14):
ok so put:
when the image is dilated about the center, then the pre-image and its image will have the same center, and the new line will intersect line AB at that center.
