Problem 24 of 7
Verify segment scaling using distance formula for preimage T(1,0), U(4,0) and image T'(1,0), U'(10,0).
Hints
Using a hint is okay. It just tells the trainer to give you a little more review.

Full solution stays hidden until you ask for it.
1. Compute original segment length.
2. Compute image segment length.
3. Divide image length by original length to verify scale factor.
Use the worked steps, then substitute the final answer back into the original relationship to confirm it satisfies the prompt.
Comparing only one coordinate difference when segment is diagonal.
