How did you get that?

OpenStudy (bibby):

dilations can either enlarge or reduce a figure. the resulting figure will always be similar because the sides will be in the same proportion, but they won't be congruent because the resulting figure is a different size

OpenStudy (bibby):

do you know what the difference between 2 congruent figures and 2 similar figures?
