Answer: The scale factor was used in the dilation = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

  • The scale factor of dilation is the ratio of the side-length in the image to the corresponding side length in the pre-image.

From the given picture, the length of side SR in pre-image = 3cm

The length of corresponding side S'R' in image = 12 cm

Then , the scale factor of dilation will be :-

[tex]k=\dfrac{12}{3}=4[/tex]

Since , the enlargement appearing on the other side , then the scale factor becomes negative.

Hence, the scale factor of this dilation =-4.
