[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] In this lesson, students learn to dilate a figure. Students examine guided notes, review guided practice, watch instructional videos and attempt practice problems.

Oswego City School District provides a three link tutorial on dilations. By clicking on each of these links, you will find the definition of a dilation, examples of dilations, and a quiz to test your skills.

This site offers a very basic discussion of dilations. It explains what a scaling factor is and provides illustrations.

Given a coordinate plane, the student will graph dilations, reflections, and translations, and use those graphs to solve problems.

This lesson focuses on dilations, a dilation is a transformation that resizes a geometric shape, by making it bigger or smaller.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Transformations move and modify geometric shapes. There are several types of transformations that all transform figures in different ways. These transformations can...

Given a pair of similar figures, including dilations, students will be able to generalize that the lengths of corresponding sides are proportional.

Learn how similarity transformation is one or more rigid transformations (reflection, rotation, translation) followed by a dilation.

Kids learn about the speed of light and time dilation in regards to the theory of relativity in the science of physics. Also how gravity can change the passage of time.

Understand what relativity is and what Albert Einstein discovered while studying it. Identify special relativity and general relativity.
