- Identify if the dilation makes the figure bigger or smaller.
- Determine if a figure has been dilated.

Cluster:
Understand similarity in terms of similarity transformations. (Geometry - Major Cluster) : Clusters should not be sorted from Major to Supporting and then taught in that order. To do so would strip the coherence of the mathematical ideas and miss the opportunity to enhance the major work of the grade with the supporting clusters. |
